Hi Rhys, you love to hate those BW35's. I know they are old & sap power, but they outlast engines with ease here.(Australia) They also got used in the very popular Ford Falcon for more than 15 years with a very torquey 250 cubic inch six banger & never gave problems. I've only seen made in Australia BW35's, I've never seen an American version, perhaps the American version is shit?

Vacuum retard, all B20's had it except the B20A, which had advance & mirror image points. B18A's have vacuum advance too. Every B18B I have seen has no advance can(two piece points). I've tried vacuum advance several times & I can't get any use out of it.

Cheers,
Paul.
