i know they werent desing, intended, installed by VW on any beetle. I know about the notorius "flat spot." my 34/3 and 009 combo "works" probably as well as it can. **WHAT IS THE ACTUAL REASON FOR THE FLAT SPOT AND POOR "STREET" PERFORMANCE (they perform relatively well at the drag stirp, right?) technically, that is..

BTW...search around your local junkyard/parts place/mechanic. there are LOADS of SVDAs sitting around after being replaced by 009s. i've found several with good "cans" and tight shafts that i got for FREE!!! at my next tune-up out goes the 009 in goes the SVDA!

They have a flat spot because they have THE WRONG ADVANCE RATE AND NOT ENOUGH INITIAL ADVANCE!
