Lol. Its ok, i asked. Nope, cant follow all the posts on all the boards. Just havnt the time for it. Shoot, i have to do the vast majority of my online activity on the go with i phone that is prolly smarter than the user. (how the heck do i get this dang thing to post pics?) The stories i can...

I agree, the stock or correct resto drum has been beat to death. The hardwire ball from the fuse pnl kit is quite painfull. Not into standing on my head to crimp on ring terminals and landing one at a time on pnl, then stringing wire everywhere either. I would like plug in harness style, but...

Now we're getting somewhere... Would be in the developmental area. Everything on my car works very well. Unfort due to raw material costs and labor rates (americans wont work for $.13 an hr like the chineese) $150 kit just wont happen. I have installed current kits on the market and the...

Yes, makes sense from a consumer or installer's stand point. Now please try to look at it from a supplier's or manufacturer's stand point. All of your ideas are perfectly acceptable. But could be difficult to cost effectively implement in the production side. Which is why i said i wouldnt argue...

I have noticed that many new lamp sockets, molded plugs such as voltage regulator and stock electronic ign come with 6 to 10" leads already installed. What would be recomended or not to install theese to new wire. There is also a ? I have of how to hook up to temp sending units and fuel sending...

Abj: you are certainly entitled to your opinions and procedures, i asked, but please dont deem another method as "half ***" just because it isnt your preferred. Some things just arent practical for all people. Which is why i started this thread. If you will kindly refer to the op....? A...

Steering column, turn signal switch, hazard switch, horn switch and ignition switch in column rewiring with all new or connection to existing?

Paddle type? So for a connection of the new wire to an existing, like a lamp socket, if the oe type housing is no longer avail what would you prefer? Butt splice and heat shrink yourself, 2 halves of an insulated quick disconnect with one side pre installed on the new wire, the other side butted...

Thats awsm. Please, feel free to continue your book! I may have some questions, but wont consider any suggestions or ideas to be "wrong". Not looking for any arguements, slam or flame jobs, just ideas. Would prefer to keep this one as clean as possible. Thanks again. C

Looking for just that. If you could have a new harness your way, what would you do? Bulkhead disconnect or gromets with hardwire passing through? Ignition options? Wire colors? Whatever would you do?

Nevermind, looks as tho you did. Gray is indeed oil sending.

You checked the "crank hot" brown And the "run hot" blue? At the column plug and both sides of bulkhead?

Is what i figured. Anytime i've seen a damper move, it stayed moved and kept moving! Weak springs rev and advance easy, but retard & die at low rpm in drive. (unless weights are drilled/lightened) which is the exact opposite of your symptom. Double check your ign components, altho i've never...

Jray: not being condescending but: do the dist you are using equiped with functional mechanical advance? Or welded, pinned, or lean burn?

Funny, i try not to assume much, check the simple obvious first :)Make sure you have the proper year timing cover/damper combo as 70 was the change year and everything swapped sides. Cam timing does retard as the chain bushings wear (stretch) which is why i set all mine *2 to *6 adv dep on...

Vac advance on constant vac port on carb? Would explain more adv at idle, and retard as throttle opens, vac drops-timing retards, esp at wot. Try Capping all vac ports cept pcv on carb and run with no vac line on dist at all. See what happens. Unless you didnt have vac adv hooked up to begin...
