I returned the new distributor and actually got the new one last night. I put it on and it fired right up. So it was bad out of the box. I set total timing to 36 and just drove it. Runs really good. I'll probably still take the old one apart and try and fix it for a backup. To answer your...

The car isn't missing. It also def would not run on 30 deg of initial timing.

Well, it likes 18 degrees and has a small window advanced or retarded that it doesn't lose rpm or start missing.

I looked at it, ive changed springs in an msd distributor before but these im unfamiliar with. I think it may need recurved, either that or the weights are sticking. The car has been restored really well body wise but the motor and trans got put in and never finished. So I'm kinda sorting things out

Good to know, priced nice also

The car idling around 750-850. Only has 10" of vacuum and a pretty lopey cam. That's a whole other discussion

Theyre identical distributors

Sorry I mean mechanical advance. I can advance it by twisting the distributor. I didnt know they were crap honestly, I just went the cheaper route since msd has gone so far up in price in the last 5 years

I recently bought a 69 RR. I did an electronic ignition conversion on it, I posted on it in some other threads. The car fires up and idles really well, with good throttle response. I set the timing to 18 initial. The problem is it doesn't advance past around 22 for some reason. I have a brand...

Update. I did have a loose connection at the switch! I took my brand new distributor out and put the old one back in, car runs like a top again. I'm still not getting charge from the alternator though. The alternator I'm using is a square back that had one field terminal clipped to be used on a...

I have a 69 plymouth I'm converting to the orange box, new style regulator, and two field alternator. The car previously had a crude engine harness on it wired to an ecu with solid state reg and no alternator. Just enough to get it on a trailer, but mostly ran really well, started on first...

It seems it already has the brushes and isolators in it?

You guys are awesome thank you!

No instructions. I do have a service manual, but its for 1969

Here's a photo

Well if I'm understanding this correctly, that would make it a single field right? I need a dual field

Probably been asked alot but i couldnt find my answer. Im currently changing a 69 plymouth to the newer style system with the orange box and regulator. I have a brand new square back alternator that came with a different car that I was going to use on it. It has two "field" tabs on the back...

I contacted classic industries and they sent me a replacement part. That was cool of them, since I bought the switch from them months ago but just now got my engine in. Just stinks I spent hours thinking I had an issue somewhere in my wiring, not the brand new switch I installed. But yes, I had...

Well i think its all correct the way I have it, I have continuity from the cam switch all the way to each socket. When I turn the signals on its not sending power to the top two wires on the cam. Which is why I only have front passenger and rear driver turn signals. Apparently I got lucky and...
