==Opinion on [http://www.crankshaftcoalition.com/wiki/Hot_rodding_the_HEI_distributor#What_vacuum_source_should_I_use-_manifold_or_ported.3F Cliff Ruggles' vacuum advance advice]==
 
Note: Cliff is missing the essential point here. This is not about what some enegine "likes" or not but pure simple science. The whole idea with adding vacum-advance is to compensate for the fact that the thinner idle/cruise-mixture are burning slower, meaning it will need an earlier spark or more timing-advance to burn properly. A properly set full manifoil vacum will also prevent detonation since it goes off as soon as the enegine starts working/loosing vacum.--[[193.71.29.173|193.71.29.173]] 05:52, July 1, 2012‎
