Has anyone used the new Dave T-bow Distributor? looks like a nice piece.
If you want to spend that much, I think the gas savings may be worth the
price.

I have one also. It works very nicely, but I got no mileage increase.

I'm happy with the two I have .  One is in daily service.  Don't think
that you'll notice
much gas savings unless whatever you are replacing is junk.

I have one in my 64 Daytona Convertible.  It is sweet but no great
increase in milage.  But is sure runs nice and starts quickly, almost
before you turn the key.

No savings in gas milage inless the points aren't kept adjusted and the
timing adjusted accordinly.

Stable timing is stable timing.

Now if you have been using a junk dist. with badly adjusted
points.....sure you'll get better milage....so would freshining up the
old distributor!

It is a nice way to get fresh new parts into an old beast though!
