[Fot] Mallory Distributor

[riverside]

I remember Smokey Yunick recommending that
dizzy be locked (with no advance mechanism of any
kind) at the preferred total advance number.  Starting
was achieved by spinning the motor with the ign. turned
off until oil pressure was showing and then the ign
switch thrown to the on position.
Anybody ever try that?
Henry's getting pretty close!!
