Finally getting back to my flathead project . . . time to tackle this distributor. I'm new to these (well actually to flathead mechanics in general) and am kind of (well really) in over my head. I would like to buy a "new technology" distributor for my 51 8BA engine . . . I hear there are several on here who can set me up. I really don't know what to ask or what info to provide, so I need someone who will not be offended by stupid noob questions . . . Point me to someone I can contact, or can someone (re-builder, supplier etc) contact me to help . . . . TY !! PS, I did do a search on here, and that opened my eyes to just how little I know, which prompted this post !! Looking forward to learning more as I go . . .
