[Roadsters] EI Distributor Advance or not?

[Gary Boone]

Yes, that will accomplish the same thing.  When I built the EI
distributors for 
Solex cars, I locked the breaker assembly with a screw to
prevent relative 
movement between the upper and lower plates.  But the vacuum
controller, if left 
in place, should do the same thing.  The centrifugal
advance is the same for SU 
and Solex dizzies.  You're good to go as is.  Or
if you wanted to remove the 
vacuum controller, you could take it apart and
convert it to a Solex dizzy.  
Email me for details of that if you wish.
