duraspark advance slots

hey guys. I got around to tearing down my duraspark donor distributor and this is what i found for advance slots. 16L(or 18L couldnt read it) and 21L. Now, from what i have read, the those are to big. willgive me to much advance. what distributors are the best canidates for the 10L and 13l advances? read somewhere that the big blocks are more apt to have the 10L and 13L advance slots. is this true?

My own experience has been that the Y's like more advance than an Fe, not less. I typically take the vacuum advance chambers that have the adjustment within them and adjust for maximum travel for maximum advance. Fuel mileage has always been better this way.

ya but with those slots, my advance would be to much. from what i have been reading, the y-block likes about 30-36 total advance and with the slots i got, the total would be over 40 degrees total which is pre-ignition territory. what are you guys running for total advance?????
