has anyone heard of this???? I was looking through autozone's free repair guide and I found a section referring to the 'octance selector' and how it slightly changes the valve timing to better suit your fuel octane.

can anyone tell me more about this device? I normally use premium (93 oct) gas in my AE82 and I was wondering if adjusting this device might benefit me at all?

it just advanced/retards the timing by turning the distributor.

here's a link to the page for the record http://http://autozone.com/az/cds/en...rInfoPages.htm

now where is this distributor? any tips on making adjustments? where is this 'distributor vacuum unit' that it's supposed to be attached to?
