Was checking into progression ignitions Bluetooth directed HEI distributors.

Among other whizzy things their HEI offers tunable electronically controlled spark advance, which, to me, seems to be a step forward over playing with vacuum cans to eliminate part throttle ping.

It sounds like they use a common circuit board across all the GM HEI distributors for spark firing, and depend on the user to tune the advance with their Bluetooth-enabled device (generally a phone)

They’re fresh out of Oldsmobile HEI distributors until July. Which ain’t that long to wait. But,

I thought I’d check with CO on buying a Pontiac distributor & substituting the Oldsmobile cam gear. 1 roll pin and 1 cam gear and I’m potentially in business.

It seems a very simple substitution, but I wanted to get your views on whether this might work.

Stupid idea?

Thanks in advance for your views.
