ive stayed out of this until NOW, its all a matter of what system you want to run..............................
i ran both and had good luck with both.................................. hell even sunk the boat and the 6al box was under water and ran great the next day..................

so what do you want to spend YOUR  money on either way your spending

oh yeah my mag is a super mag 2 and its locked out with the rev limiter from here
ttp://etcrevlimiters.com/

i know you are tired of chasing your tail, so whip out your wallet and be done with it........

i did have my box mounted on the head like you do and moved it to the bulk head with the rubber delio's for viberation.'

ok im off my soap box now :-[ continue on


No Soap Box required Ralph! I think you just reiterated what I've said since this thread began, lol!  ;D

And from a more reliable source!

I guess my point is, think the thought (or project) through. If theres a problem, I was taught by an old guy I worked for in High School (Way back when) part time repairing typewriters, copiers, and (Something foreign to those of you under 40) Adding machines, What caused the problem and always continue asking why until you solve it. Worn part?, part failure?, lack of maintenenace?, Abuse?, Misaplication?, or Design Flaw?

Beleive me, the last one was RARELY the problem.

Not that part!  ;D I mean initially, when you drop the dizzy in! No matter WHAT MFR of engine, you always start with the Number 1 piston at TDC  to even remotely figure out where the dizzy Rotor should be pointing at, no?

On a 460 I know it is at where #1 is at TDC and #6 just starts to drop, you drop in the dizzy with the rotor pointing directly at #1. Will fire right every time. On a 454 I beleive you sub #8, but it's been a few years. How'd they initially time the MOFO???

Ray


Sorry Dave, but this has me REALLY confused how the fugger made it as far as it did?

3383
damm,did that thing start?must have shaked like a mother focker :o

I was thinking the same thing! With Number 1 not there, how the hell did they ever time the thing?

I don't know the diff between the spring mag and the super mag, but I know the Vertex's I have come in both internal and external "coils", and that may be the difference. Mine are both internal and I'm gonna run 'em that way and see what happens in the spring.

I think the external type is what you really want, should run cooler (They do run hot!). I think that's what Terry is running, but don't remember whether it's the Sprint or Super. Personally, I would beleive the SprintMag would be the one you'd want. That would likely be designed for more than 1/4 mile passes, if I were buying Mallory on it.

Also, dunno if you can even find a Vertex for Ford "385" engines, or if they ever made them. Would be worth looking into, they're pretty much bullet proof!

Geez...   Getting rid of  Crazy  888's  ign. problems ...That big a deal ..Fck.   :sly:

LOL, true huh? Funny something that should be so simple causing all those problems for Brad and the guys. :mad:

I think Glenn mighta hit on something though. Those boxes, and usually their coils, cannot be engine mounted! the vibration will kill them.
I suppose you could get fancy and use rubber grommets under it when mounting it there, but vibration is still gonna be an issue, IMO. Those things are run on drag and street cars relentlessly with greater reliability than what I'm hearing here. Why is that? They're mounted on the firewall or fender. (Nascar boys mount theirs on what would be the passenger side dashboard inside the car). Using grommets under them where the screws go through to mount them is never a bad idea either! Use nylock nuts and loctite though.

Maybe that's the problem? I still think a mag for your application is probably best though Brad. Kinda hard to miss with that, and you're not out daycruising with it so heat buildup should not be an issue.

Love the Box! Still running the Mallory units on two of them. Gonna experiment with mags (vertex) on the next inception, which I though was gonna be the Loogie, but saving that motor for another project I can't talk about just now.

I need to be stopped, lol.

Ray

They will fit  :thumbup: You're fine.

Only difference between "Big Block" and "Small Block" BOP is the block and deck height, as far as I know.

yea the rain...It's like dumb mother fockers forget how to drive when it rains :banghead:

LOL yeah they do. Same thing here, saw 4 rear end accidents on the way home today. All of it driver error, although we have the added problem of nearly no rain for a couple years, the residual oil getting brought up to the surface. Makes it a bit sporty out there!

Keep the boat well oiled, I say! Do that routinely with the Moo's oil pan and the green ones leaky dizzy o-ring! Hopefully fix those this winter.

Looks like a good solution though Skip! I hope you used Nylock nuts on those bolts and doused them with loctite!
