Re: 423 SBC combo help

Gary, the distributor is subject to dynamic (not static) forces in the running engine not only side to side, but due to the spinning meshed gears on the drive end and constantly changing engine speeds and loading, I believe it would be subject to forces oscillating upward and downward as well.

Re: Where in the US?

:D Point well taken, Tony! In and around Houston...... Just as there are areas where you wouldn't go without good reason...... And armed to the teeth...... There are a few pockets of relative sanity. Even here. Just gotta find 'em.

Best regards,

:shock: Crazy Ivan! When he started shoveling handfuls of snow on the electrical fire, I closed my eyes. Water and electricity don't mix well. But apparently, the current was dead by then and he will go home after his shift and have some Vodka with his mates!
