...cause this is now using venturi vacuum where as the old setup with the old carb was running manifold vacuum. not sure if it would be strong enough of a signal.
Hold on a minute. We are talking 1956 LOAD-O-MATIC correct? H4000 W Spark Control Valve and Single (breaker plate) ADV DIST?
Correct, 1956 dist with dual reservoir vacuum advance with two vacuum lines to a holley 4000 carb.
Might upgrade to a newer dist, I see the local napa sells a dist for a 1960 F100 with a 292 for $80 plus $15 core. But I already got all the parts before I stumbled across this otherwise I would have went with this dist and modified my holley 4000 to function with the late model dist.
Aside from that I am working with oem parts correct for 1956 model year.
