Ah yes I read that as well. I'm assuming you're running higher octane fuel? Unfortunately in CA we only have 91 available and that's with a good amount of ethanol mixed in. What does your timing advance to higher in the rev range?

Hmm alrighty very true. I can do that by just watching the timing with my gun while revving the engine up? Out of curiosity, what did you set your base timing at without the advance hooked up? Still ran way better than points I assume? Haha Thanks for the help by the way. I still have yet to find a definitive answer on this subject as to the best solution. "Best" would probably be getting a custom curve..

Hey guys! Not from Australia, but a Z fan nonetheless. Sorry for bumping an old thread, but the content was relevant. I've been reading up on doing the 280zx dizzy swap into my 240z. Stock engine at the moment, but I will upgrade to a high compression L28 someday. My biggest fear is the vacuum advance. Is everyone that does this swap using it? A lot of places I read say it advances way too much for our engines, some say they're perfectly fine, and others don't even use the vacuum advance. What are your setups, and how is the timing? I'll be reading up on everything else that I can..
