" I'm bust trying to find one. Oh, there's many, but they all
" 
"   (1) assume V8, no mention of other numbers of holes (it does matter)
"   (2) come with only weights and springs, far as I can tell
" 
" Total advance is limited by a finger and a slot, sometimes a pin in an 
" oval hole. Therefore, a rotating part has to change, not just weights, 
" if you want more than stock advance.
" 
" Does anyone have any specific knowledge of kits with more than weights 
" and springs? Otherwise I'm fine hacking my own parts (what else is new 
" with old cars!)

forgot to add - back in the early '80s, a garage put a recurve kit
into my first american, a '66 199, while they were fixing something
else - i don't know why.  sure woke that car up though!  added a few
mpg too.

sorry this doesn't help you directly, but kits that fit the delco 6
dist do or did exist.  i wouldn't be surprised if they used the same
springs and weights as v8 kits.
