[Roadsters] Distributor work

[Roger Kersch]

I replaced the original 66 distributor with one from a 1970, including the
weights and springs. Specs say mechanical advance begins below 500rpm and is
full out at 1800 Rpm, no way will our cars idle at 500. So when I first start
the car after a bunch of work on the carbs etc it idled at 1000. So is it best
to set my timing light for basic+full mechanical advance (10+7.5) at 2000 rpm?
And then add vac advance to timing light and goose the throttle?
