If it's a six speed you can just put it in gear. Higher the better.

Top Street Performance (TSP) is the distributor. A few eBay sellers have them.

I believe this is similar to the Chandler unit. It seems well built. 1000 miles on it so far. 200 after engine rebuild. We shall see what happens. My last Delco had 90,000 miles on it. My MSD lasted 2000 before I gave up on it.

About $90 I think. Just wanted to see if this stuff works, and it does. Car runs great.
