Re: Spark Plug Wires

Does anyone know of a set of wires pre-built that work outside the manifolds?? I have seen a couple of people what say big block chevy wire set do but really would like the part number if anyone has the info.(Mine run outside and I like it much better than the factory setup.)
Thanks
Jeff

Re: Distributor cap corrosion

Yes I will check and make sure but I think they spent the money for testing and the housing itself is a non vented housing. BUt like Fastjeff was talking about if you pipe the vent out to a place that will never see moisture this maybe all that is needed with the new cap material. At one point I ask...

Re: Distributor cap corrosion

Bluesky Maybe now they have new material for the cap I hope it is rare but I find it hard to believe that I have seen two fail in the same year and Barkleydave had the same. They did send us new distributors one to replace my test one with new coatings and new design and they also sent one to replac...

Re: Distributor cap corrosion

Correct the vent is in Distributor on the old OEM and Old style Pertronix. Barkleydave has alot of good reading in (Pertronix Distributor Test) If you read all you can on this site about the OEM point sytem you will get a good handle on the way you need to go.

Re: Pertronix Distributor Test

They did send me a new setup at the end of last year. So this is the Second complete distributor for test with the latest and greatest mods. I really like the service and work they put into such a smaller market. The new system is none vented I think and the cap arching could be one of the things th...

Re: Steering Stuck

At the time I did mine of coarse it was on an upcoming Holiday weekend and took the Teleflex route and had to make a few things.(because the local dealer did not have all the part number to make a complete system.)
