I don't know carbs that well, but your setup sounds basic enough that setting the advance on the distributor yourself shouldn't be that hard. Buy the cheaper one and put the savings towards some good heads.

yeah thats what i was thinkin. gettin the heads not a big issue, the car has been perfect with no probs as it is,unless i get the heads as a gift from fam members i prob woont do the heads for a while at least , got the cobra for all the speed and power but sounds good , thanks man.

but if i did start lookng at heads what would everyones picks be?? non expensive not looking for hardcore hp or perf.

Any of the GT40 series heads should do just fine. You may have enough to do a port'n'polish if you find a good set of P's off of a explorer. If not, go for the Y's. I have had a few friends with em and their cars moved decent.

do the ready to run distributor use vacuum advance? if it does, i would not get it.
just get an msd distributor, make sure it has the correct gear for your cam, and buy an msd box.
