in my mallory dist?
summit just sent me my 2 points, rotor and cap.
i thought they would tell me how much to gap the points but it didnt say much on the box.
i have feeler guages just wondering how much the gap should be.
btw one of the allen head screws on the points doesnt want to budge but i'll figure it out.
also got some timing tape to go with the package from summit hopefully after i get the last point installed and everything gapped approprietly it'll finally fire up and stay on! :D
btw i also changed out the ignition switch.
as always, thanks in advance for the info, you guys have really helped me get this thing going
second picture is my girlfriend daughter, she's happy about sitting in the boat making vrroom noises too :D

Dual point gap on a V8 should be .022" on both, the dwell should come out to about 33*....This is from memory, but would be willing to bet on it.... :thumbup: :thumbup:

Ever since I went wheeling for 50 miles to the middle of nowhere to do some fly fishing and the 1955 Willys Jeep we were driving quit running and we got it running again with a business card and some WD40, I don't knock the points anymore.... :sly:
Not everybody has nine boats in which to pull parts from... :screwy: ;D
