Starting to rebuild the Allen distributor machine

Stock box should be good to 3500, eh? That is a project. I may look at my 1950's drill press and find out why the spindle is wobbly...

Remember, the machine shaft only has to go to 1/2 crank speed. I plan to experiment with the Mopar boxes I have (about 6?) to see if any "fall down" at higher RPM, or if they effect timing


I can easily do that by either subbing an HEI module for the Mopar box, or maybe using a points dist, and first triggering the strobe off the Mopar box, then wiring the points to coil NEG just as it originally was, thus eliminating any possible timing effects from the ECU
