    How to refurbish a bulkhead connector?

    Does anyone have a link to the instructions for eliminating the ammeter and the bulkhead connector (circuit) from the car entirely? I had a carburetor fire that burned all my underhood wiring, the connector and most of the under-dash wiring. I have replaced the throttle cable and throttle...

    Slant 6 lean burn distributor info...

    The one I have, has a selector knob on the dash that allows you to select retarding the spark one, two, or three degrees for every pound of boost it sees, up to fifteen. Or, select "no retard." It IS pretty handy...:blob: But, I only need about 6-8 degrees of retard, and I'll be making...

    Slant 6 lean burn distributor info...

    I have one of those on my V8 car. I don't think I'll need it on this /6, with the Lean Burn distributor; we'll see... I think the BTM module is not as powerful a spark (it's only 42,000 volts and not an MSD (multiple spark discharge) unit.) It's analog, I believe, or at least the one I have...

    Slant 6 lean burn distributor info...

    I KNEW THAT!!! (No, I didn't!!!) Thanks for the information! Now, realizing that "Hobbs switch" is about as technical as I can handle, what will a MAP sensor do for me that a Hobbs switch won't? Anything? I am not trying to be a smartass; I really AM that ignorant. I just...

    There is something you two guys (Kid and Kit) need to understand here. I AM AN ELECTRONICS IGNORAMOUS. That is NOT an attempt at humor. I am in NO WAY, competent to sit in judgment on your suggestions, though I will admit to understanding SOME of what's going on here. Kit talks...

    Slant 6 lean burn distributor info...

    Only one of the pickups would ever be activated at any one time. I would use a Hobbs-switch activated DPDT switch to automatically switch between pickups (only ONE coil) so that below 15 PSI I'd be using the "advanced" pickup and over 15 PSI I'd be using the "retarded" pickup. I think that's...

    Slant 6 lean burn distributor info...

    The HEI has a mechanical curve that I don't need. I want a locked plate. I don't need the vacuum advance, either. But, this dual pickup system might give me the capability to run more advance that the 18 degrees I need (once boost goes above 15 pounds,) by running the MSD 6-AL digital system...

    Slant 6 lean burn distributor info...

    Thanks for the advice, Kit. I don't have one of these distributors. Yet. But, I will soon. I ordered a new one from Rock Auto (probably a rebuilt, not "new," actually), but that's of no importance in this instance in that there's no centrifugal advance mechanism nor a vacuum advance...

    Slant 6 lean burn distributor info... Can someone with experience regarding the "no manual or vacuum advance," dual pickup, slant six electronic distributors answer me a question here, please? I need to know the amount of difference ON THE CRANK in spark timing, between the "start" mode...

    magnum head people unite!

    I am apparently lucky on several fronts, but my almost stock 360 Magnum heads (just a 3-angle valve job and MINIMAL bowl clean-up.. nothing else) have not cracked, and with the aid of 10 pounds of boost from my Vortech blower (entry-level, small V-1, S-trim) made 445 RWHP on av-gas. I don't...
