I'll look at that tomorrow, taking the wife out for dinner right now so I locked up the shop for the night.
I'll compare the drives once I pull the old dizzy out and set it by the new one.
Thanks for the guideance tonight gents.
I haven't taken the old dizzy out yet, so everything is currently how it left the factory. So the drive should not be out of sync.
I'm just going to remove the factory unit and install the new one identical to how the old one comes out.
Sorry, I guess I should have worded that better. The original cap has (1) molded into it indicating it is the #1 post, but when the rotor is lined up with the post, it is pointing at #8 cylinder physically (making an invisible line). I'm used to chevies where #1 is physically lined up with #1...
Evening fellas,
Forgive the rookie question. I'm getting my '93 5.2 Magnum prepped to drop in my '72 Dart. I am swapping the factory distributor with a Mopar Part Number 440-426 distributor. I'm too used to working on chevies and have muself overthinking this I believe.
Factory distributor...
Have decided to go carb for the time being. Someday I may switch to an efi setup.
Need an intake with the offset thermostat because I'm keeping the serpentine system on the engine. A centered thermostat won't work as far as I know.
