If you don’t want to read about my problem below I’m essentially asking what people may recommend for a new ignition setup on my alcohol burning 410 (the hemi build has to wait another year at least). Was leaning toward a 6al-2, pro billet distributor and whichever coil they recommend.
Finally get the motor back in my car, and now I’m having some stupid problem. I let go of the transbrake, the shift box activates which kicks the car to second, and the motor cuts off exactly 3 times. It’s like I pedal the throttle three times real quick off the line. Even footbraking it will immediately shift to second, and cut out. Disconnected the shift box, still cutting out. I’m using a 20 year old Unilite distributor with a Hyfire Viis box that’s been dependable up until this season. Have checked all over for loose wires, or other obvious problems.
