Re: Opinion on ignition

[Gary Wilson <gwwilson70@xxxxxxxxx>]

It is just getting broke in.  110k is just not the many miles for a
Mopar if it has been taken care of and oil changed regular/  I would
change to the mopar electric ignition. You can buy the kit or make
your own if you have access to a wrecking yard that has some 70s
mopars. Just need the dist, brain box and the plug in for the brain
box. The rear main is not to bad to change. Drop the pan and pull the
rear main cap and then use a chinees wire set up to pull and replace.
May has to help it by turning the crank a little to get it moving.  No
valve adjust ment on the 383.  Hyd  lifters and came.

I got a little droplet after running my car, slightly annoying, but on Chevys they weren't that bad with a two piece..just sucks changing them. I gotta take valve covers off soon and put new gaskets cause of leak and I'ma repaint while off. Does anyone know how to adjust valves? I'm thinking no one has never touched the motor and it's got 110k on it...if I had the money and knowledge for a rebuild I'd love to...

The guy I got it from just had it for a short time and didn't know...figured 110k is kindve a lot of a old mopar motor like that...any help would be great!
