Looking for some advice from anyone who has converted their alt over to the Denso style and measured the voltage output afterwards. Trying to understand if things are normal or out of whack. Put this setup on my car on Sunday. I have one of my good Fluke meters along side an Autometer volt meter...

I have my newly rebuilt 451 running pretty good, but am fighting with dieseling/run on when the key is turned off. Running a Firecore distributor set at 18 initial and 34 total, 46 all in with the vac can hooked to ported. I want to try stabbing it on manifold, but am having an issue with only...

In MSD's kit, the biggest bushing gives 18 degrees. I have a custom made 14, but would like a 16. Anybody know of a source for one of those? MSD Ignition 8464 MSD Advance Kits | Summit Racing for reference.

Looking for some advice on these newer electronic voltage regulators. I believe everything is working correctly, but these regulators seem to be putting out more voltage than they should. I run a stock 37 amp 1 field alternator that has had 60 amp internals put in. I have 4 different brands of...

Anybody know if there is a difference in quality for 1969 and older style regulators that have the electronic guts? Amazon, ebay, Mancini, are they all the same?

Got this car put back together 4 years ago. Everything in the electrical system is new except the ignition switch. Car is a 1970 and using this style alternator. During restoration I installed a brand new USA made MP 3438150 voltage regulator. It was working great for 200 miles and then I...

Anybody know if there were any later turn signal switches that took the place of the 1968 1969 2857241's?

Thought I would share this info for anybody interested in such things. I had a no start issue last fall on my 69 Bee. After wiggling the positive cable on both ends, it started normal. This was one of those $40 cables sold most everywhere. Really not sure why I bought it in the first place...

Cleaning out the garage and don't want to throw something away that may be of value to someone.

So this car is my 1970 Duster with the standard dash. I realize this is not a 'B' body, but have to imagine the wiring is similar. I am not the best by any means with the wiring on these old cars. Need some help to get me pointed in the right direction on this strange issue that happened last...

https://www.summitracing.com/parts/msd-8386/make/dodge Have any of you guys used this distributor on a Super Bee or Road Runner that has the fresh air ductwork and oval filter? It is listed as being more than an inch taller than a stock unit. Just dont want to an issue with it hitting the base...

I have used a Firecore distributor along with a FBO ignition box with rev limiter on my past 3 motors with zero problems. I am just starting talks with a very well known engine builder for my next project. He actually built my last motor a couple of years ago and used a Firecore because I...

Anybody have a source for or know of some other grommet that would would work for a 2 speed motor? The only ones I can find are a nos kit being sold on ebay along with the metal inserts. $55 for this kit is more than I want to spend. 3 speed motor grommets are repoped and sold for $9.00, but...

Do any of you know where a guy can buy the 90* terminal end shown on the right in this picture? If you buy a full set of 9000 8mm wires, you get 8 included. My problem is that when buying just one wire, that end is not included. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/acc-9001c/overview/...

So I thought I would buy a couple of electronic distributors to throw on the shelf for spares. I'm looking for p3690431 and p3690432. Mopar quit making them and I am surprised no one has stepped up to reproduce a copy since there are so many in use. Is the Proform sold by Mancini the only...

Every wire and electrical control on my 69 Charger has been replaced or rebuilt. Not sure if this is a issue, but I have never seen quite as much ammeter needle movement as I am having with this car. Everything works fine, but at idle the needle will bounce up to charge when the brake pedal is...

Well I'm getting to the point on my Charger restoration that I need to find a nice set of plug wires and am wondering what you guys are using. 440, stock electronic ignition upgrade, 440 Source heads - so they have the straight plugs like stockers, TTI 1 7/8 headers. Is there a kit made up...

I'm getting ready to order all the wire harness' for my latest project and have a question I'm hoping one of you electrical experts can help with. On the last 2 69 RR's I ordered a standard harness and a electronic ignition kit. Used my original one wire alt. and the 2 prong ballast resister...

I'm hoping one of you engine guys can help me figure out why the timing reads high on my car. Ever since the motor was rebuilt I have had extremely high readings, but the car runs great. I noticed that the #1 plug wire on the distributer is pointing to the front of the vehicle. The vac...

Has anybody found a decent way to eliminate the power going to the ammeter through the bulkhead connecter without butchering the harness? I am debating changing to a voltmeter to eliminate any dash fire possibilities in my 69 RR. My car is all stock except for a modern radio. All new wiring...
