Distributor issues

[solidaxle]

If yours is really worn and need to change it. A lot of guys, myself included, use the Chevy distributors and have them modified to fit the flat head. They are inexpensive and plentiful. I have a Mallory YC with a tach drive. Jim Linder from Bubbas did mine.Charlie can do this also.

Measure the resistance of that accel coil you need approx 1.5 ohms ..ay need to madd resistor in the feed line .............
Should run just fine if not work with the timing , and air fuel with that blower

You can adjust advance by bending tab seen thru adjustment hole .......

Awesome info. I actually have 2 of the condensers and tried both to no avail. I really dislike the Accel coil for purely because of its size so I plan to put a new one on. Any suggestions?

Sometimes I just Google my question to find the answer.

For 12V setups, I use this coil all the time . . . have never seen a bad one yet:
