Question For The Experts
You don't even need a fuel pump if you can figure a way to safely elevate the fuel supply........gravity feed to the carb.
Breaker points makes things simple. Scare yourself up a ballast resistor if you are going to run it for more than a minute or two. It can be a dual resistor, you will only use 2 terminals. Go to MyMopar and look up the diagram, as the resistor is different on each side, only one side feeds the coil.
Hook battery.....resistor.......coil +........coil minus to distributor.
Hook jumpers/ cables from block and starter to battery. Run a jumper wire from the ballast to the battery PLUS
Use a screwdriver or jumper lead to jumper from the "big" battery terminal on starter solenoid to the small solenoid terminal and it "runs".........or at least cranks
I have run engines hanging from chains on the hoist, and ran a Magnum with a home made carb adapter on an engine stand with blocks under the pan
LMFAO Anybody figure out what this is?
My "go to" for test / emergency ignition, is either breaker points or an HEI module "in a box"
This hooks to a Mopar breakerless (magnetic) distributor and already has an old Mopar coil, and needs no ballast
