Can you tell me the difference between the vacuum advance on the 216 from the 235. The reason I'm asking is, I have both of then. The only thing I see is how they sit under the distibutor. I have the steel line off my 216 and the vacuum advance. The vacuum advance off the 235 was pretty shacky so I used the 216 advance. Will it work OK?
THanks again. Chuck 49

As long as it bolts on securely, I don't see a major problem with using it. The degrees of advance might be slightly different, but it would be necessary to research that information using the distributor part number in a GM specification book. Chances are it won't make a noticeable difference.
