What Are You Doing To/With Your Car Today?
Bored with the Phoenix heat and monsoon storms, so decided to machine a aluminum billet mechanical only breaker plate for a Mopar aluminum distributor... also machine the distributor casting itself for more exact center line and roundness... and, making a snug fitting aluminum breaker plate for a more ridged distributor ... was surprised (a little) how the cap seat on distributor was slightly lopsided from shaft center line... fixed that as well...
Quicker advance springs... and a few other select parts... .008 gap between race style reluctor (machined) & pick-up... set timing 35° total @ 3000 rpm and at idle was 10° BTC... Zero spark scatter or bounce!!!! Timing light made timing tape / harmonic balancer look like a dead still photo at any RPM
Took the 65 'cuda 273 Commando 4 speed out for a quick spin to slam a few Gears and was not disappointed ... (carried spare Distrib with me... but did not need... LoL )
