    Not sure if its the problem or not but at high rpm's my 1950 ford with a 239 flathead starts to hesitate. Is it the vacuume advance or something else?

    contact gmc bubba here on eh hamb, shitcan stock dizzy like now..

    there is so much difference when using one of his dizzy's that word cannot describe it.

    absolutely the best money you will ever spend on a flathead.

    I just cut the head off of a bolt, thread it into the block like a stud and use a nut/washer to tighten it down
