Get rid of them both, cap the fitting on the manifold. Leave the dizzy uncapped, if you cap the fittings on the dizz it will keep the mechanical advance from fully advancing the timing.

ok so i finally checked my timing since the first time i set it it was set at 1,000 rpm to just a hair above stock setting, tdc
i noticed it was advanced to far at 3,000 rpm so i backed it down,
i also reset the trailing timing
after it was all said and done i cleaned up everything and was ready for a ride,
well it would barely start,
i popped the hood and noticed i forgot to tighten up the dizzy "DUH"
reset the leading and went for a joy ride,
holy **** i only drove about 5 blocks but noticed all my backfire in between shifts is gone!!!!!
insane,
will confirm this tommorow

it looks like i was runnign way to mych advance but if i retarded anymore the dizzy would stop turning because it was as far retarded as it would go,
from the looks of this pulley click here if the yellow marks are the leading and their in 5 degree increments then i would say im running a 10 degree advance at 3,000 rpm
however if the orange marks count as well then im running a 20 degree advance at 3,000 rpm and about 5 at idle
