Looking for some guidance. I have a 1966 200 CI in my 63 Falcon. I rebuild the engine to stock specs, cam, pistons etc. This past weekend I picked up this Weber at a swap meet for $5. A deal I couldn't pass up. The carb is really clean, everything moves freely. I believe this carb to be a 5200. I have been doing my homework on this swap so I know that I will need the adapter and the distributor will have to change being I'm still running the Load-o-matic. I'll have to play with the linkage. One of my questions is where to I pick up the vacuum fro the distributor. Another is what is a good choice of distributor. A DUI is a little high for my budget, I don't mind the size and look of an HEI that they sell on Ebay, A DS II looks like a wiring nightmare. Would a stock post 68 dizzy with a Pertronix be a good set up?
Any info from guys that have done this swap would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
