no need to get to anywhere close to 1000rpm on a reasonably stock engine, period. In the old repair manuals (when cams were milder than in the 1970s), the "aim" was 18" Hg at hot base idle. Of course, when the rpm was increased a bit and ign timing increased, it would go up toward 20" Hg...

Please post the instructions that were sent Show us pics of the wiring Is the module properly grounded? Was it checked with an ohm meter? With the key "on" the voltage at the ballast resistor input should be the same as the measured battery voltage the output voltage of the ballast resistor...

from the Rockauto site...don't know if it means you actually get Timken or not

Ironically this new 440 I’m throwing in is from the Bronx, I always end up in NY somehow lol. Thanks for the heads up, I’ll shoot him a message
