Selling this HEI Distributor along with a set of new wires (stock connectors are different). I bought this for my recently completed restoration and it ran great, but I decided I wanted a more stock setup and switched to a '78 OEM disti with no points. This has approximately 50 miles on it, if...

Hey guys. Old distributor went out so I ordered a new one. I set it to fire on TDC compression stroke. According to my timing light, it's getting inconsistent spark. Why could this be? I believe power to the distributor is constant. Thanks for any help!

I recently switched over to a stock disti with Pertronix so I don't have a need for this distributor. It needs a gasket (doesn't use an o-ring). It worked fine but oil did work its way up the shaft. I dont think I had the right gasket and it probably could have been clamped down better. It...

Anybody ever heard of these? I know about having JimC or someone else on the club recurve your dizzy if you desmog, but haven't heard of an actual *upgrade* that would produce better spark. Wondering if it comes with its own bottle of snake oil, or if its legit. Here's the ad copy from a CL ad...
