19063911/26/2009 6:27:04 PMWhat complete ignition system would you recommend, from dizzy to sparkplugs. If it helps we can use automotive other than marine electronics in our boats down here in New Zealand, so its doesn't have to be "mallory marine" equipment. Dave

1081529/22/2004 1:42:27 AMI have a Ford 390 in a marine application with a YL Mallory distributor. My manual only states an 8 degree initial advance. The information that came with the spring kit that I ordered from you says that Mallory distributors are factory set to give 24 degrees advance.
