So, The Baroness is basically done. Only thing holding it up is the
distributor. Right now, I've got an 009 in there, which Lloyd put in when
we switched to carbs. If I remember correctly, he could not fit the old
one with the vacuum can in the spot anymore. Jason wants to put back a
vacuum advance dist, Is this necessary? Will it improve performance
enough to be worthwhile? The B. is an automatic.

Yes, it'll make a difference. I like either the 043 or is it 034? SVDA
(I've heard it called by either set of numbers), or the 311 905 205 L or even
the 205 AB. The last 2 are type 3 FI distributors, and the advance curve of
either one is much better than the 009.
I've ran all of the distributors listed above in an MT car. And I've ran
the 009 with dual carbs and AT before. While it works, it does leave
something to be desired. I've also used the SVDA with AT before, and it seemed to
be much better than the 009.
However, for AT cars, I actually prefer FI with them, as it seems so much
better matched.
