Anyone know where I can find a recurve kit for a 351M Duraspark Distributor?

Try Summit, Crane Cams went belly up I believe but they should still be available. Haven't tried them, but I believe the Mr. Gasket spring kit will work.

If you are looking for faster advance you can try removing the heavy spring & just run the light one. There are 2 different advance slots for total timing. If the short slot isn't enough I just weld it back some till I get it where it needs to be.

running with a spring missing could allow the mechanical advance to not return at idle.

don't miss the second page, there's a chart that gives slot dimensions
