The external coil was for years 74-75. All HEI distributor suffer to some degree from retardation. IIRC all distributors from about 63 after suffer from retardation. The SBC and BBC HEI recurve kits will work in the L6 HEI. I have several files for recurving the HEI distributor (DIY) that I've downloaded from the web. Unfortunately that computer is down and won't be up for a couple of weeks. IIRC one of the files came from a Ponitac board and the other from a Camaro board. Do a search you should be able to fine something.
