1966 /40 dizzy question (1 Viewer)

[Billsboat]

Hi all! I’m trying to bring my rig back to factory as best I can. Currently my original f motor has a dui dizzy on it, and a recently purchased nos aisin carb. The thing runs like a top! That said, I’d like re install the distributor that would have been original to the motor... if I can find one.

So here r my questions. What should I be looking for, and Can they be rebuilt? This of course assuming there is nothing new to replace it.

In advance, thanks for your time and information!

Unless you’re going for a concors resto, the vacuum advance dizzy from City racer would be your best bet.

Thanks mark! I had looked at that before, but wanted some input from folks in the know before I committed to ordering. I appreciate your time. Bill

Billsboat, if you end up replacing your D.U.I. distributor and want to sell it, please let me know as I'd be interested. Thanks.

get a stock dizzy and put Pertronix Performance Products in it ... you can pick a pertronix up from mark @65swb45

could even probably get a used dizzy from him

They can absolutely be completely rebuilt if you chose that route as well:

My rig will never be show worthy but I like to keep parts as original as possible so that is why I went the rebuild route. But the dizzy @65swb45 mentioned is most likely the more practical route as its new and can get it fast vs waiting a few weeks to have one rebuilt.

That’s what the like button is for.

The like button indeed has a purpose, in this case it did not meet my needs, but thanks!

I’ll definitely want to sell it. Do you have any interest in a after market carb? If so I’ll get you the particulars. Thanks

If it's a D.U.I, then yes I would be interested. Shoot me a PM. Thanks.
