Yes.  I was establishing a data point for those who didn't buy their 
turbos new.  While I do have a Dale advance/retard distributor, that 
setup with Weber 45DCOE have not yet been run.  In any case, I intend 
for the Weber to be converted to progressive throttle actuation before 
the car gets back on the street.
