Re: timing light w/ advance recomendations
the older sears, model light is161.2134. works excellent. had a racer years ago, used a dial back on his MSD, motor always tried to kick back when starting, used my sears light, his light showed 35 deg, mine showed 50 deg, reset timing with mine, car picked up 2 tenths and 2 MPH. also started easier.

Re: timing light w/ advance recomendations
Try eBay for an old Craftsman 28-2134, just an old-fashioned straight up timing light. Works great with MSD 6 and 7 series boxes. Dial-back lights not recommended for use with MSDs. I tried one, would not work at all with a 7AL-3.

This looks exactly like the Electronic Specialties, wonder if it's the same light? |

Re: timing light w/ advance recomendations
Yeah, the reviews are horrible for the Performance Tool one.

Re: timing light w/ advance recomendations
I don't think the Electronic Specialties light and the Performance Tool are the same light - similar, but not the same if you look at the photos. The Electronic Specialties light looks like it is also sold by Powerhouse Products (part of the Comp Cams performance group).
The Electronic Specialties unit gets good reviews everywhere I look. Supposedly good to 14K RPM. |
