I-Man posts regularly at www.chevytalk.org in the performance forum. Lots of good ignition info.

I should have beeen clearer just in case you didn't know that I-Man ( Ignitionman at www.Chevytalk.org ) is "Dave's Small-Body HEI's." Very helpful guy.

Had heard about his service on another site, just wondered if anybody here had any experience using his distributors and for any advice or pointers before sending mine in to be reworked ......:D

Yeah, there's quite a few around here that are using his conversion. Never heard any complaints.

Dont think about , just do it! High quality work. Mine even has a "failsafe" as Dave made up a small attachable HEI module in case the MSD fails. Redundancy, custom curve, adjustible vaccum can, all for $165.!!!!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! BIG :thumbsup:

I fact, it reminds me I owe him a phone call.

P.S> I replaced my Pertronix as it was having a hard time keeping up with the L88's rpm range.( reluctor not balanced and wobbled free, even after Loctite). Dave's is good for at least 8500 rpm I should think. Plenty of margin for me.

The first one I installed was on a friend's stock 67 325 hp mill. Sweet. Simple. Stock appearance.

I have two of Dave's distributors. One is in my daily driver 72 Chevy truck. The other was the tach drive distributor from our 62. Both have performed flawlessly and Dave provided excellent post sale support.
