anyone using a HEI distributor..anyone tried skip white one
With the trailbeast setup, what's the best way to add in an rpm limiter?
The best/inexpensive way to get a rev limiter and HEI is one of my current missions. :-)
Right at this point it looks like a remaned points distributor, a Pertronics Ignitor III with rev limit, and an HEI coil might be the best way to go for cost concerns.
Distr = $45
Ignitor III = $150
HEI coil = $50
So for about $250 one could have true HEI and adjustable rev limiter both.
Pertronics does not, and probably will not make an Ignitor III for our current electronic distributors. #-o
The Ignitor unit would replace the Mopar box on the fender, as well as remove all those wires for it, but I think Pertronics probably figured it wasn't worth doing for Mopars that are currenty electronic already.
A skip White distributor may or may not accept an Ignitor III, as I don't know that yet but it would come out to about the same total of about $250 by the time you bought an HEI capable coil anyway.)
But then that would negate the reason for buying a Skip White unit unless one just wanted a cooler looking distributor.
Personally I just picked up a separate Procomp 2 stage limiter that I may or may not end up installing. (I don't need a 2 stage)
It all depends on what I can put together out of all the available stuff out there.
I would like to end up with an HEI ignition with rev limit for $200 or less, but it's getting more and more complicated and I'm doubting it can be done for less than that.
(this works with that, but not that, and so on it goes.) :-)
