Hello from Atlanta Ga.  I remember having to put a Bosch 009 Distributor on
and adjust the timing when I removed my '72 Van dual carb setup and replaced
it with a single Weber setup.  It did not perform well with the vacuum
advance distributor.....  When the new carb, distributor and timing were
properly set  the pickup was very impressive indeed!   Hope this helps.
