Timing and Vacuum Advance not working- Replace Distrib or V. Advance

I'd rather not have to buy a whole new Distributor because the VA doesn't work. Is there any place that I could get a new VA?

 

Symptoms: When punching the gas it hesitates quite a bit, horrible mileage and some smoke.

 

When hooking up the VA to the constant vacuum (it has 240z SU's) the engine revs up a little, but with the variable vacuum port on the carbs, there is no effect when reving the engine.

 

So that's why we think the VA is failing.

 

Also, does anyone know what the stock timing is for the L26? It doesn't run too well when it was where I got it. We manually advanced it a little w/o a timing gun and it does run a little smoother.
