Changing Advance Curve HEI

I bought this distributor

Mallory 85 Series HEI Distributors 8556701C - SummitRacing.com

I have not found any literature on the specs of the advance curve. I can add an advancement spring kit to my order if i know which kit i need. I have to add it before it ships tomorrow though.

Does anyone know what full advance on the dizzy is and what parts i need to adjust it?

Thanks
Ryan

Might try Mallory website for specific technical info.It likely has a performance curve already and an adjustable vac. cannister.Also,get the spring kit and customize the curve to your engine.I got the spring kit and through trial and error adjusted my HEI.Come to think of it,the kit I got included a lighter set of weights as well.
