1935 Distributor Upgrade
What parts are needed to upgrade a stock 1935 distributor to improve the advance curve?
I have not found a definitive list. I highlighted the parts that I think are needed: Thank you in advance-

The snap ring highlighted is the same either way. You can reuse the cast lower housing but you will need to remove the oil shield. While the 11A is a improvement, the BIGGEST plus is being able to run the 37-48 points and getting away from the junk early points. 68 series runs well too either way the points are the big improvement. |
