What about the vaccum advance ?

brought a new dizzy cap to suit the new leads its injection so no vaccum advance i think

*small update*

today i tryed a few alloys wheels on and i think i ve found the ones i want
i did use to have the cav fanblades on it but i think these are different
also tryed the wheel that is on top of the fanblades but i would have have slightly wider arches
but then saw theses
