Vac hose placement on Weber IDF's
I'm currently running a 009 on my 2056, I really don't have a huge problem with it accept the either on or off attitude. I have the stock 205 dizzy and was thinking of giving it a try, where do you guys tap into 40 IDF's for a vacum source? And what timing do you recomend, this was a 1973 GA 2.0 motor with 96 mm P& C's and dual weber 40's. I have a new stock cam in it.

I've had better luck with the 050 distributor and have also tried the 009. Have dual Webers with a modified cam and flowed heads...

Here's a pic of the side of your garden-variety Weber IDF:
![]() If you don't have the port labeled "Vac. Advance Port," than you're going to have to have one shallow-drilled and tapped for it; not recommended for the faint of heart. I would use a 050 distributor first, as this is the most common unit to use on T-IV's with either 40 or 44 IDF's. Or you could up the anty and pop for a Mallory unit; very sweet. ![]()

Not right in the head

Yea DD says that the 009 should be lake float tested first. LOL
Seriously I ditto the 050. I had tried the 009 on mine when it had carbs and it just didn't fit the bill. Not enough advance. |

I just ordered a new Mallory dist for the same reason. I will let you know if it worth it.
