Maybe it is because you typically remove the distributor before doing this to it, but it is possible to do while in the engine still.

If you watch a video like this, and study the instructions and charts so you have the right springs and bushing in front of you, you can do it much quicker. Better yet, do it when you purchase a new MSD distributor for your hot rod. Then you can curve it the way you want it before you even install it. One of the least expensive and best bangs for the buck you can do to gain power and performance is to re-curve your distributor.

One of the keys to a car's performance is getting the power to come-on at the right time. The fact of the matter is; almost all distributors are set-up completely wrong right out of the box.

It's an almost automatic "gimme" that you need to re-curve it to get the timing the engine needs to make power as soon as possible.
