Default Re: Condenser Life w/ the Nu-Rex upper plate

I've got to agree with Kurt and Kevin. I have used the modern points and condenser in a couple of my model A's and had nothing but problems, mostly with the points. I now only run original points in all of my model A's. I have been running the same original type points and burn out proof condenser from Brattons in my 31 tudor for eleven years with no problems. Original condensers can be difficult to replace. If the modern condenser is used, it can be mounted to the coil bracket and connect the pig tail to the switch side of the coil. The condenser will run cooler and should last longer if mounted on the coil bracket.
