    Cranks and wont start ongoing issue

    Kit, I agree that it might be, its the one thing that is constant. When I check it to the battery it has 0 ohms, but cranking that can change. I have a ground strap at the back of the block to chassis and the battery to the front of the block. I need to talk with MSD, when I check the 3 wires to...

    Cranks and wont start ongoing issue

    It is a fresh rebuild, it came straight from the dyno and planted into the engine bay. I never removed or touched the dist except for removing the cap when dropping it in. It was getting plenty of fuel and maybe a little to much by the back fire. On the next crank cycle it was like it almost...

    Cranks and wont start ongoing issue

    Right now is the stand alone dist. MSD 8388 Ready to run. The ballast is bypassed using a 10 gauge jumper wire connecting the run and crank wires like the one for a FABO ignition. 12 volts supplied by these wires to the positive side of coil, red MSD to the positive side, orange to the negative...

    Cranks and wont start ongoing issue

    Looking for a little insight on a ignition issue that has me stumped. About a year plus ago I removed my Fast EFI and Mallory Hyfire 6 and went back to carb and to the regular hook up of the distributor (Mallory Unilite) through the ballast. When I hooked it up it almost started then would only...

    Mallory 6a hookup

    I installed the 6a and couldnt get the car to start in the cranking mode but could with the key on and jumping the start relay it would start and run fine. After doing a ton of reading and finding I need to have the 12volts "run" and "start" both feeding the small red wire on the Ign box - is it...

    Which Electronic Distributor Would You Recommend

    I have interference issues with the MSD pro billet dist (8388). It is super close to the windshield wiper motor. I had to trim the top nub of the wires to get it to fit. And now after I installed the TTi's-they hit the steering box, so I tried to space the mounts 1/4" up and now cannot get the...

    Burnt plug wires

    They are MSD 8.5 wires with straight boots. I think I need to find a way to keep them held away from the manifolds or try and get 90 degree ends. I also thought of the expensive route, pull the manifolds sell them and the head pipes(which would probably pay for half) and order TTI's. 8)

    Burnt plug wires

    Anyone have suggestions on which plug wires to use with the MSD distributor and the 340 Hipo manifolds. Ive installed the plug wire sleeves and that doesnt help. I've burned the crap out of the wires-mainly on the back two cylinders on the drivers side. They are straight boots onto the plugs...

    Year One Engine forward Harness

    I was looking to change the engine harness and looking at Year one it has two different harnesses. The stock replacement and a modified harness. It looks like the modified is used for the electronic voltage regulator and the electronic ignition. I was going to modify my harness for the elec...
