    get rid of points?

    I had an older Chrysler I had done the pertronix with good results too. The reason I had opted out of the points set up on my Barracuda was frankly it's getting hard to find them around me. No more walking into any local parts store on a whim for them these days.

    HEI conversion problem - any input?

    OK - here's what I have to report... After sleeping on it, and thinking about how I had cheaped out on the dist and coil, I could only think what's wrong with myself in my head. So I opted to purchase through Mancini a new distributor. I also opted for one of those advance limiter plates...

    HEI conversion problem - any input?

    Well I did the wires and now I'm having a run issue. Not related to the wires I'm sure, but now the car won't continue running. Starts fine, idles good, and now won't run long enough for me to pull it in/out of the garage. As for a ground wire I did run a direct line from the unit itself to...

    HEI conversion problem - any input?

    Yes was very concerned about not enough voltage. I removed the ballast resistor and I am using that lead to trigger my relay. I am getting good voltage to the coil and module. My 12 volts is 10 ga wire from the Bat. terminal from the starter relay. It is fused.

    Odds of battery just dying?

    Excellent thank you all. I'll give a test on the cables/connections/battery over the next couple of days. With Mom's day Sunday I'll be busy but I'll get cracking on it early next week.

    Odds of battery just dying?

    I've never come across a problem like this, so I figured I'd throw it out there. I have a 1967 273 Barracuda, and is pretty original. No extra accessories or hack jobs. No air, just motor and typical items, lights, AM radio. After nipping a slight power steering leak I figured I would...
