well, like i was telling everyone at the theatre "my car wont make it", welll it didnt thanks to a wonderful dizzy problem. that why i havent bee getting any power to the wheels or anywhere....summit here i come its time for an electronic ignition. any suggestions

BTW my header bolts wiggled loose as well.

 

i get all my parts from street or track (www.streetortrack.com) shaun is an mustang guy, he got me a ready to run dizy for my 351 for 350 or 375 i think no mo points brand new sizy and runs great , as for header bolts , only 2 ways to make header bolts stay, #1 slight tac weld after they are tight(do not recomend) or get a locking set!

 

I know some folks that have good luck with the Ford Duraspark distributor. Cheap too.

 

whats the price on the duraspark?

 

Junkyard distributor. Research it to figure out what you need.

 

thanks for that tip Mberglo, now i need to pick one up.

 

The best way to go about it if it is Duraspark that you will be using is to go to AutoZone or Advance etc and pick up a new Distributor for a "77 Thunderbird with a 302 and Ignition module with a "blue grommet". You also need a new coil for the '67 Mustang. You will also need to change the "plug gap" for m .035 to between .045 and .050 depending on what other kind of stuff is on the engine. Of course you will need some wire, solder etc to do the conversion. The system works real well and the nice thing about is if you were in Nashville and your distributor went out, you could go to the local AutiZone and trade out your bad part.

 

the dizzy i have in there is a 74 ltd dizzy....guess i missed 3 years. the gapping is already a .47 what is involved in the conversion that i would need to solder stuff? i do need a new coil bad, and a new altenator.

 

problem solved, next step fuel injection !

 

i've got one of those on the way too.....this is a simple fix until i cant get a stroker kit for the block sitting in my garage.
