HEI upgrade, wont start (no spark?)

Hate to bear the bad news, but you got played/pwned by a dishonest eBay seller.

1. That's not an "HEI" setup. See the HEI upgrade article for info on what HEI is, which parts are best, and where to get them.

2. Blah blah blah "heavy-duty STEEL distributor drive pinion, not like those feeble plastic ones that always break" blahbitty blah blah, sez the seller. False! Every Slant-6 engine made, from the first one in late '59 clear on through to the last one made in Mexico in the late '90s, came with a nylon distributor drive pinion. They work fine for many, many years and miles, and they aren't prone to breakage, and they're exactly what you want to have if something goes wrong with your distributor and it locks up. Nylon gear = engine stops. Steel gear = trashed camshaft and good chance of trashed oil pump.

3. Speaking of something wrong with distributor: that's a cheap Chinese copycat distributor with all the quality and dependability you have a right to expect from a cheap Chinese distributor-shaped trinket. Very likely same "quality" level in the ignition control box and coil and other components.

Whatever the specific problem is that's preventing your engine starting, it's not likely to be the only or last one you experience with this fraudulently-described kit you bought. :-(
