LR> My three guesses are that (1) there is a little prong that comes out of 
the
LR> back of the vacuum advance can that has broken off (this happened to me).
LR> You will not get ANY vacuum advance with that little piece sitting in the
LR> bottom of the distributor.
This is not possible because as soon as i hook the vac line back up, it 
advances from perfect timing to advanced, at idle, and never moves from  
here
if i revv it w/vac line on.
LR> (3) Your dwell isn't set right (highly unlikely though). Buy, borrow, or
LR> (ah-hem) a dwell-meter and follow the directions to set your dwell right.
LR> Since an authority figure (ok, ok, stop laughing) on automotive repair
LR> set your dwell it is probably where it should be.
Where can i get one, and how much will it set me back? (although it would 
defibately be an Investment)
LR> How this is of some help.
thanks!
