There is also an article on the fordmuscle.com site under the tech section. You don't change the weights in a Ford dist., only the springs. you can also get an adjustable vacuum canister as part of a kit from Crane. They tell you that if you put both of the lighter springs in you will get full advance in by about 2500 which is what I have. The total is controlled by the limiter piece as explained in the article and where you set your initial. If you think you are getting too much at the top end I would look to limit the vacuum some as it can keep pulling the breaker plate farther if there is not a stop. Why do you think you have too much up top?
