Yeah, sorry, I forgot to mention that. It is 10 btdc... I will check the advance. I'm using the dizzy that i had on my 74 motor, and it doesn't have vacuum advance or retard attached to it. As for air filters, I have one that needs to be replaced that is for the HS6 style air box, meaning it is very slightly smaller than the one for the HIF6 style air box, according to Shayne. It sits a little loose and has burn marks on it from backfiring carbs... It will be replaced along with the ignition tune up parts with an air filter for this box. Unless, I decide to get my piping setup and put the air filter out on the end of a tube in front of the radiator support. Thanks!

Ps. What are your thoughts on the plugs and what gap to use...?
