alright i have a 1965-67 chevy 283 and i have recently put vortec heads on it a larger cam and i am putting hei ignition on it... i have been told that 283 distributers are degree'd differently than any other smallblock so i most likely wouldnt beable to get a timing read on the motor... this which is true i couldnt find one... with all of this stuff im putting on my motor now, i would like to get an accurate timing read on the motor so i can see what is goin on, so can anyone tell me or help me with this how to degree a distributer? or do you know if a local machining shop would do it??/ any help would be great thanx!!
