Re: new electronic distributor problems




Thanks John, that helps a little bit, But I am wondering what the boxes actually do? Do they control advance- thereby eliminating the advance mechanism in the distributor? My sneaky Pete plan for my 64 Dodge is to run a stock appearing early distributor with a Pertronix electronic conversion inside, and a hidden MSD box--If that will work. This is my first venture with a Mopar ignition except for my early Hemi with Pertronix. I am not just idle dreaming, I build my projects on paper quite a ways befor actually doing the work. That saves a lot of "do-overs" New roads for me to travel with this project, and I an having SOME FUN NOW! :-) ..............MO......sw iowa ----- Original Message ----- From: "john althaus" <althausjbl@xxxxxxx>

I always heard the orange box was good to  6,000 rpm and the chrome  box
goes to 10,000,  forget all this and look into a MSD "Ready to Run"
distributor and coil, distributor is self contained, (no box needed) fires my 12.5 cr
Hemi ever time. Idles and is still pulling at 6,500, my self imposed rev
limit.

 Assuming that you have a distributor with mechanical and vacume
 advance-wouldn't it be much simpler to covert using Pertronics? I can't
see the reason behind all those different Mopar boxes ( chrome,  orange,
etc.).................MO..........sw  iowa

Mo,,,,,,,the box  replace the points as a way to get the current to the
coil, not  sure what is different between the different boxes, am
assuming
 that
it is the speed of operation of internal parts so as to allow  longer
duration of  power to the  coil
