Re: Question about distributor/condenser for Ford Model A - 1930
Ifyou choose to go the original route I would use the short proof condenser from A&L ,Most good model A parts vendors handle them . A modern style condenser can be connected to the switch side of the coil . The red wire connects to the switch side of the coil . Then remove the original condenser and it should be good to go . I prefer a three OHM coil for a twelve volt system . No resister will be needed when a three OHM coil is used . The original six volt style coil can be used but a resister will be needed at the coil connections . I use the three OHM , epoxy filled Pertronix flamethrower coil . This performance coil gives a boost in power that usually can be felt but looks like any other replacement coil . I think that my coil was around forty dollars or so and I feel well worth the price .
