I'm out of good distributor's with good vac advance and am wondering if the group has had any experience with the "Stealth Accu Spark" distributor's listed on E-bay. They are Hall effect and supposedly for the 1275 though nothing is said about advance curves.

I have no first-hand experience, but I can say this much. First, "Hall-effect" is just the way the magnetic field triggers the spark, and it says nothing about the spark itself. Second, they are selling one distributor for all spridget applications, so it has to have a "one size fits all" advance curve. Now, the curves of, say, all 25D distributors are pretty similar, but not identical. So, among other considerations, it depends how particular you are about this.
 
I guess as long as there is enough advance total and enough vacuum advance thats all that matters but I would hope they would have the advance stat's that they advertise. [1275 Cooper S] Considering what vac advance units alone cost its probably worth it.
