    Can I use this ateernator?

    To use the alt shown, just ground one of the FLD terminals. Take a connector and a short piece of wire, then conect one end to the FLD term and screw the other end of the wire somewhere on the case (you could use a ring terminal on the other end). I have a powermaster alt for my 69 Fastback...

    Wiring a msd Box/dist

    I kept the resistor with my MSD 6AL, this may not help, but it works fine.

    Volt meter in a rally dash

    A few months ago in Mopar Action they did a conversion in a B-Body. You may want to take a look at their site to see if they have it listed in the tech area. I think it was a SunPro 2" that they used. Real Time Engineering also does them for around $150

    Okay, in that case, try to locate a possible short or drain. I went through this not to long ago with my Ramcharger, I had fun with my cars this summer. Take the neg battery cable off and then hook a multimeter between the neg battery post and the detached neg cable, set the meter to read...

    If you are running headers, you could be heat soaking the starter. I had this same problem and it acted like a charging issue. After a stop the starter would barely turn (if at all), then after several minutes of waiting for it to cool, it would crank. I have changed the starter (MP...

    Who's running an MSD Distributor?

    I just sold an E-Curve and that is the way it is/was. I just put it in as is, but if you want you can pop out the oil pump shaft and rotate it. I'm not sure why they are built that way, but it can cause problems with wires. They all fit, you just need to check length prior to installing them.

    MSD e-curve

    While I'm thinking of it, if anyone would like to buy my E-Curve and wires let me know. The distributor has only been run about 500 miles and the wires are the MSD 8mm ones for a small block (you can see them in the pictures I posted earlier). While I like the distributor, it is overkill for...

    MSD e-curve

    I used an E-Curve in my 69 Barracuda with 408, it is now in my 86 360 Ramcharger. The distributor works fine, and is easy to change the curve, once you figure everything out. In my case I wanted 35 total in by 2200 RPM. To set this up, you set your intial timing (lets say 10 degrees)...

    diagram help

    You can use that one, or one from AutoZone or continue to use your current one. Just hook it up to the wires that are running to your current voltage regulator. There should be a wire running from the ballast resistor to it, it looks different then the newer ones. AutoZone sells a solid...

    diagram help

    Just a follow-up, below is the link to the MP manual via Summit. It says to diconnect both leads to the ballast resistor, then reconnect the battery. With the key in the run/on position see which wire(s) are hot, that is the wire to connect to...

    diagram help

    The first photo is your wiper motor resistor, the second is the one you want to tie into. As for which wire to splice into, you will need to test which one is live in the run position (if I remember correctly). Someone will chime in shortly to get it straight. If you are doing a MP...

    Variable speed wiper motor 69 Barracuda help

    Okay, here is another question. Has anyone tried using a 73 up variable/3 speed motor in there 72 down A -Body with the 69 switch? I would be willing to go with the later model motors if it will work with my switch and wiring. If anyone has done this, please let me know what you had to do...

    Variable speed wiper motor 69 Barracuda help

    I was wondering if anyone new of a person or place that repaired the variable speed wiper motors? My motor goes very slow and only parks when it feels like. I've checked the wiring and grounds, and I think it might be getting near its end of life. I'm looking for someplace near Ohio, I...

    Ralley Tach ,can't make it work...WHY?

    I am also using an electronic regulater with a MSD 6AL, prior to getting the cluster tach, I had a cheap tach bolted to the under dash area and it worked without a problem. It was wired to the battery - and to the MSD tach output and 12 volt switched off of the ballast resister. Prior to the...

    Ralley Tach ,can't make it work...WHY?

    I've got a repop tach that works but goes dead every once in a while. On the repop tach you need a good ground from the tach to somewhere. I'm thinking the ground is what my problem is, so I will check that first. It is currently grounded to the back of the cluster as per the directions, but...

    I ended up going with the 8504 MSD Digital E-Curve Pro Billet Distributor, so no need to reply. Thanks

    Distributor opinions

    I will soon be running a 408 with MSD 6AL and the MP distributor that comes with the MP conversion kit. I will be running mainly on the street and want to keep the vacuum advance if possible. The engine will put out 425 HP at 5000 and 515 ft lbs at 3000 (both flywheel per Desktop Dyno) with a...
