Guest Posted September 15, 2003 Share Posted September 15, 2003 Ok I'm to used to MSD boxes and HEI's to try to set these points on a buddies car. It's a Monte also by the way. I put the points in but I thought there was a pre-determined gap setting. I have an old Dwell meter but I've never used it. I know about the alen head screw inside the cap window and fiddled with it and got the engine running today but it sounds like crap and no power, but anyway I was looking for a preset gap in the points.????
