dual pick up distributor

Yup, the '82 Dippy had Lean Burn. Cop cars had the lean burn module in a nonstandard location, away from engine heat instead of atop the engine on the air filter.

The dual-pickup distributor is a dead end if you are trying to make the engine run well. Use a single-pickup distributor with vacuum advance -- this new genuine Chrysler one rather than a "remanufactured" piece of junk or "100% NEW!!!!!!!!" Chinese knockoff trash, and proceed as per the HEI upgrade .
