brake release and Elec. ignition questions



There is a release lever located at the top of the pedal arm. The problem may be that the vacuum hose or the canister it attaches to is bad.

I don't know for sure about '77, but if the brake release is vacuum controlled, it probably has a separate release lever hidden under the dash.

I'm sorry to have to re-post this, and having to ask those of you who offered advice, if you wouldn't mind sending the mailing-list another quick note to answer my '77 NYB brake release question:
> my '77 NYB 440 seems to be having a case of sticky emergency auto-brake release, it eventually pops up, but sometimes I have to go back and fourth between Park and Drive 4 or 5 times before it will release.......... has anyone else experienced this, or does anyone know an easy-fix ????

> and now, here's a BONUS question, for all those learners (like myself) who have a million questions and not ENUF answers: I would like to take the points out of an older engine (brand X) and install HEI or electronic ignition so I don't have to deal with replacing points anymore (way in the back of the engine behind the CARB )......What bits and pieces do I need to buy besides a new distributor to complete the installation ???
