Thanks Chris, I appreciate when people explain stuff. I am still and always will be learning just like everyone else. But thats good news I think.

The only problem I have is the STUPID Mallory I am running. The cap is hard to find at local performance shops and if they have it in stock and don't need to order it, it's pretty expensive. It has a poorly designed rotor/coil contact inside (in my opinion). It has a spring loaded nipple design that extends down from the cap and rides on the rotor but after some use the contact snaps off leaving a nipple/slug to bounce around when you try and start it. It also has the old 1970 302 style terminals, female terminals on the cap, so getting plug wires is expensive too.

On the positive side, the only cap and rotor I can ever even find is one with brass terminals. Probably partly why its so expensive.

If I redo it all then should I get a Crane Distributor as well?
