Any body know what the length is on a positive battery cable for a 70 Duster small block is . Or where to get cheapest nos one .

Look on msd web site they have a video of rotor phasing

i thought when you still used your ballast resistor with a electronic conversion from points you used a lower resistance coil.When they converted this over from points i am thinking they did not change coil

Need help with coil resistance. Have a 65 barracuda slant six car that i believe has been converted to a electronic ignition.It still has resister mounted and wired up on fire wall the resistance on it is around 1.9 ohms unwired. The coil has 2.2 ohms resistance unwired is this the correct...

I think I am going to stay with my old ones

Has anyone converted there h4 headlights to led. Can you just replace the bulbs with led bulbs. Or do you replace the whole light. Where can you buy the bulbs or light

I used the mounting bracket that came with it.I modified it and drilled holes in the battery holder and put flat head screws downward into the mounting bracket for the 6 al.After I did all that I got a msd ready to run and got away from using the box.It is kind of hard to explain since I did it...

I have a 70 duster and mounted it under the battery holder

New battery. Will check the voltage on it before i try and start it.

Checked the bolts they are tight hope its not a torque convertor problem

Sometimes when i start my car the starter makes a very very loud clunking noise. It is a 1973 727 transmission with a mini high torque starter.I do not have the dust cover on it.I do not know if that would make any difference since this may space it outward out of the ring gear teeth.I have...

I had a battery that had a bad cell that made my alternator jump back and forth

If it is a stock dist with vac advance they put a lot of timing in with the vac advance.Look at the total with the vac hooked up and see what it is running 15 degrees initial

Buy a ready to rrun msd dist and get rid of the boxes they are just something else to go bad

Disconnect the vac advance if you have one.Set your initial about 18 add 18 to 20 mech for a total of 36.If you have vac advance adjust it to add about 6 to 8 degrees if it is adjustable should be fine set at these settings

The problem i found with the vac advance msd dist is if your motor has 15" of vac like mine it adds 20 degrees of timing which is to much when you add your total timing and your vac advance.There is no way to adjust it like other vac advance dist

Make sure you have a good ground from your neg post to the frame of the car and then from the frame to the engine

Do any members or any companies make a plate to limit the travel of the vacuum advance canister arm on a msd 8388 distributor.Thanks

I have not measured the ported vacuum i would think it would be the same as the manifold vac at cruise.If it is then if you you add the total and the 20 with adv you would be to high 54-56 total.I will try andsearch for the person who sells the mech advance limiter

416 stroker engine running 24 initial with 10 degree bushing.Just wanted to add 10 degrees timing at idle and cruise.If you run 34 degrees total the vac adds 20 degrees making total 54 degrees.I think i am going to make a plate to bolt in dist to keep it from advancing the vac arm all the...

I have to much timing when i add the vac timing why would i want to increase the initial timing.I think i am going to take it out and put a dist that has an adjustable vac

It is connected to constant vac because i wanted to add a little timing at idle and at cruise but it adds way to much.I do'nt know why they would not make it adjustable like a mallory.It seems if you have a engine that has a lot of vac you will add to much

Just installed about 400 dollars worth of 8388 ready to run dist.The problem is it puts to much timing in it.20 degrees at 15" of vac.So if your at 36 degrees at cruise it will be 56 degrees with vac.I was told by jegs it would only add 10 at 15" of vac.I wanted to run it on constant vac and add...

got it thanks for your help

I have a mech advance distributor with a 6 al box installed in the car now.I am going to install the 8388 ready to run distributor.Can i run the 8388 with the 6al box and what would you do about the rev limiter.Also how would you wire it.Thanks

On my duster i replaced all the connectors.Its not really that hard once you know how to get the clips out . You really cant clean the female connectors.Just replace all of them and be done with it.Good luck

Just had this problem on 70 duster.It was a bad connection at the bulk head blue wire going to alt.Look inside the car at the back of the bulk head connector and see if you have any melted wires.Have someone get on the other side and push the connectors together to get better connections.You may...

Looking for a 8388 msd dist for small block that has the vac advance. Also looking for 6 pak bolt on hood 70 duster

You will never get the female connectors all the way clean.Do yourself a favor and replace them with new ones while you can get to them easily.I replaced every connector in my car.Time consuming yes.But in the long run you will be glad you did

Mounted on the intake where the original one was.Got it from jegs dont have it in front of me.If you tell them what ignition you have they can tell you what resistance coil you need.Some have resistor built in them if you are not running a external resistor.If you cant touch it you got a problem...
