STEP AWAY FROM THE COMPUTER! If I'm not mistaken, your boat HAS a dizzy in it, right? WTF is wrong with it? This is what I meant the other day when I said you just need to get stuck in and finish it. Change shit out as you go, make improvements to your running boat. I'm not trying to be a dick, just hoping to shed some light on things for you, a fresh set of eyes so to speak.

Thanks Skip , i know what you are saying... I had to tear it all out today so i can mount a breaker inline and as i looked at my engine.....No wires , no ballast , no coil hanging off the back ... It just looks clean and simple..

just need 2 wires for an HEI and you cant beat it..... This is something i have been contemplating for months and i think im going that route... Its not gonna put the boat back anylonger than it is now, im hoping to fire it next month and get it wet soon after ;) I like that dizzy cause there is no vacuum advance...... just wanted to see if anybody has had experience good or bad with it ;)

Remember, i love you guys and thanks for putting up with all my confusion :-*

Post by: Luckie Stiff on March 16, 2009, 07:58:53 PM: Ok, if you're hell bent on doing it, at least give my friend Dave Ray a call, he makes bitchin "small body" HEI setups, priced right, look great, work even better. I ran one in several different hot rods and never had a problem.
