I found some conflicting information about 289 point gaps. I have a 1968, and my Haynes repair manual for my Mustang gives .021 gap, 27 degree drell angle but other information I have says .017 gap with 29 degree dwell angle for the 289. Does anyone have the correct information, thank you. [This message has been edited by beachbum (edited 11-03-2001).]
