Re: How To Hop Up On A Budget No. 1 Ignition
Here is something from our own experience.
Get the NAPA Gold tuneup parts instead of the NAPA Silver.
The caps and rotors have brass contacts instead of aluminum.
NAPA Gold cap & rotor are made from that brownish plastic that is better than black plastic in NAPA Silver parts.
Get the next step up from economy plug wires.Should have brass ends for spark plugs and distributor cap.
As far as spark plugs we prefer Champion.I suppose you can get Motorcraft if makes you feel better about it.
There will probably be several 'correct' plugs called for in the listing.
Try different sets.
They will vary in how far the electrode sticks into the combustion chamber and how much the electrode sticks out of the spark plug.
That last thing is 'heat range'.'Hot' or 'cold' plugs.
We lean towards 'hot' plugs.Sounds like it provides more complete combustion.
Have fun!
