    70 BARRACUDA HIGH RPM @HWY SPEED

    Quote "He claimed to have set the timing and I do believe he looked for a vac leak as well." That's scary... WHERE did he set it? According to the original specs? Did he find a vac leak? What is the vacuum level at idle? Where is the Vac line connected Passenger or Drivers side? Quote 'The Eddy...

    no spark 340 cuda

    You need to address one thing at a time.... So lets start by getting it running... When you say won't start? Does it turn over? Have you checked voltage at the + coil with key in run position? Have you checked continuity between both sides of the ballast resistor? Is it a 4 pin or 2 pin ballast...

    Ballast resister

    MSD is all Made in China now. (Some in Mexico) If you want it to run right you need a distributor that can be tuned to your engine specs. You need an adjustable vac can MSD is is not adjustable and connected to constant manifold vacuum source. 1 year warranty and a high return rate... not very...

    Ballast resister

    Then it does not use the ballast resistor. Good luck with that distributor we won't touch them, in this business the last guy to touch it becomes responsible and we won't take any responsibility for MSD's Chinese imports and let MSD off the hook.

    Ported or Constant ... Page 2

    continued from page 1..... What about the Harry high-school non-vacuum advance polished billet "whiz-bang" distributors you see in the Summit and Jeg's catalogs? They're JUNK on a street-driven car, but some people keep buying them because they're "race car" parts, so they must be "good for my...

    Ported or Constant Vauum Source? ... Again Page 1

    I found this article on ChevelleStuff.Net I don't know the author so I can't give valid credit. I have tried to explain this theory to 1000's of callers over the years and most get it. However, there's still a constant stream of posts all over the web that still want to argue about how the...

    Ignition Upgrade Options

    Interesting article from TTAC "The Truth About Cars" Looks like were all in the right hobby.... Hagerty suggests that collectors take a look at some of Mopar’s other famous ilk, too. When the “financial flexibility” of Boomers took a hit in 2008, muscle car prices took one right to the groin...

    Ignition Upgrade Options

    That's good that they took care of you, nobody's perfect everybody has failures no matter how good you are, one may get past the goalie .... It's how well you look after the issue that's really important.

    Ignition Upgrade Options

    I should add, sorry I got distracted...The Ignitor 2 uses a .62 OHM Coil 45011 coil and the Ignitor 3 uses a 44011 .32 ohm coil All run with no ballast at full battery voltage. You are correct in setting them up that way Steve340 We have sold hundreds of the modules, installed 100's of the...

    Ignition Upgrade Options

    Reliable upgrade from points is a great Idea! *The Pertronix Ignitor (1) is an upgrade from points but not really designed for a performance application. *The Pertronix Ignitor 2 is a step up but lacks some features that should be considered for a performance application normally it's used to...
