dwell is 49-53 degrees, works out to about .018" gap at the points. timing correct as posted before (BTDC),+or- 2 degrees, hondamatic is 0 +or- 2 degrees, if you are so burdened with that transmission. keep an eye on Ebay for the headers, there were some available recently, you just have to stay on top of it.

should be either 2 degrees or 6 degrees depending on if it is a california emmisions or not. like we tell most ppl, get yourself a book, a few on ebay now, this is a basic maint. that you will have to be familar with. and your motor is a 2 port exhaust????

lol oops guess that would explain why I have no replies :-)
sorry for my stupid moment

it's for the 1600 cvcc from a 76 accord

unrelated to the post is there a place I can get headers for this motor or am I out of luck unless I want to become a crafty bastard?
