I have a 72 dist that doesn't need anything but replace the vacuum advance.

#112933 2C17. Will that work for you??

This person (Ken) is the Buick go-to guy. I've never had a dist done there, but I think he's ASE, I know he has an old Sun machine. He can replace the bushings, set up a curve, limit the advance, whatever.

before & after

I went with Everyday Performance. $16.00 via USPS & $250 worth of insurance. $25 for the trip back. So, his cost with shipping $181.00. add in my shipping & it was $197.00 total.

I can't tell you how it works because the engine is partially disassembled. I asked that he put it to stock W31 specs.

GREAT guy on all things like Quadrajets, Distributors, etc.

Really knows his stuff.

And, call him on a Sunday for tech advice (like I did) and will give the help you need.
