[John Brown]

So, I wasn't imagining that I had a red pump with a red regulator after all.

[Starship]

No you weren't imagining it. I knew that I had one somewhere when I started reading this thread. It just took me this long to find it.

W&H DuCoil distributor for V8 Chevrolet. Has dual points and uses 2 coils. 1960's piece. Very hard to find and even harder to find the cap and rotor.

Rare? Try finding one of those for a 409!

W&amp;H DuCoils all used the same cap and rotor regardless of what engine it fit.

Looks like you have one coil, two condensers, and two sets of points (each set of points has a dedicated condenser). Most likely the coil charged up each of the two condensers and they both discharged simultaneously, one to each set of points. The rotor then sends the combined hotter spark to a single plug electrode.


Really like the cool can. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif

[PxTx]

I was kinda scratching my head on the rotor with two discharge points too. I remember my Dad ran a 312 with a Paxton in the mid 1960's that he said had twin ignition systems. Turns out it had a Ducoil running 2 coils, which he said seemed to require frequent cap changes due to misfires.

In a similar way to the Mallory Double Life, the Ducoil would alternate the points. Since they used 2 coils, it gave them more saturation time. The key was that you had to reconfigure the plug wires. So if you were running an engine with a 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2 the new cap configuration would be 1-5-4-2-6-8-7-3. Neither of us knew that off the top of our heads. Needed to to sketch the cap and distributor rotation on paper, so I think it's right.

If I find any old pictures of the 312, I'll be sure to post them.

What's up with the aluminum spacer?

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Hemicolt</div><div class="ubbcode-body">What's up with the aluminum spacer? </div></div>

I've never seen one with a spacer ever and I have owned a lot of those Ansen bells in the past.

[Hemicolt]

Never seen one either. I can't imagine it would have been added in order to run a larger dia. clutch. It would have hit at the top anyway....yes/no?

It is for the 11&quot; flywheel. The top has the clearance the the bottom cover hits that is where the spacer comes in handy. This wasn't a factory piece but fabricated to avoid issues.

Thanks for the tip.

Tracy,
I did buy them. They were too cool to pass up. I found in a 1970 Action Performance catalog a Cragar Header listing and the part number matched the Chevelle application. I am still hoping to hear some input on these or a picture of them installed.

Thanks for posting the photos. Those are very cool items. It looks like it has been polished. Were they anodized like the ebay one states? Or are the normally bare aluminum? Are you going to use them on your Vega?

These came from the original owner. Never anodized, it's the way it came.
I'm not using these on the Vega, it will have a YC-310 and a Jacobs or Mark 10 style CD box.

Yes they had Orange N.M.W. Tow Bars,I had two orange ones.

[ORIGLS6]

My '68 Chevelle was Seafrost Green. Loved the color. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif

[Plowman]

My 69 Nova is that color.

[ORIGLS6]

Really? Thought that was a '68 only offering.

[mockingbird812]

It may be Plowman is thinking of &quot;Frost Green&quot; for '69.

[ORIGLS6]

Seafrost &amp; Sequoia were cool colors. My co-worker had a Chevelle identical to mine, but Sequoia Green. Both were L-35 4 speed Bench Seat cars.

[Plowman]

That is what I was thinking 1969,o-well.

[ORIGLS6]

FWIW, I like Frost Green too! <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif
A buddy of mine bought a Garnet/Black stripe '69 Z a few years ago. Needed a lot of TLC so he started to strip it. Discovered it was originally a Frost Green, no stripe, flat hood, green gut car. (Original drivetrain to boot!)
He was thrilled. Had trouble finding interior parts to go back to the green, then life, wife &amp; bills took over and he let the car go.
Would have been a cool car if he could have finished it.

[396L35]

I am partial to Frost Green as well and I have owned this one since 1999...

I had an NOS 5 just like that one that I sold last summer. No dates, but the guy I got it from said it was early 70s.

[YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY]

Should one be concerned with buying these old MSD / Mallory electronics at swap meets? I'd like a full Day 2 setup for the Nova, but honestly don't know what I'm looking for - or what to look out for!

[chevyandpontiac]

The cool thing with the MSD is you can send it to MSD and they will upgrade it to the modern internals. It is just a matter of finding a nice case.

[mockingbird812]

Nos Mallory coils are still available and work just fine, 2875s I think. The distributors are rebuildable and are very well made and durable.

[Salvatore]

more people in those days ran the Mallory stuff than the MSD box. remember Day-2 is &quot;street&quot; and not track only. MSD was the hot set up for the strip in those days. A worked single point stock Chevy distributor and the black Mallory coil had my nova running 11.50's at 118 mph pretty consistently.

[YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY]

I like the Mallory stuff..... I have my eyes open for some vintage stuff!

[SS427]

Went over to a local friends garage today as he had decided to part with some items. Picked up a set of McCreary tires (free), Nova L88 hood........and check out the sun tach parts with original Sun batteries!

[Hawkeye]

Is the three gauge panel cast aluminum? L88 Nova hood is sweet. Nice score.
Thanks,
Marty

[SS427]

I should have worded this better. I did not actually purchase these particular items only the tires but wanted to show some of the things he had. He did not want to sell any of the tach products but had a lot of other GM original and early Day II parts. I believe the housing was in fact cast aluminum. I will likely be going back and will check it out better. Cumby is claiming the hood so good score for him.

[Salvatore]

The hood is definetly my favorite!

[Hemicolt]

Dated 1979. Hurst time delay for the headlights. 4 wire hook up and it can be adjusted to keep the headlights on from 15 seconds to 2 1/2 minutes.

[Hawkeye]

That's cool. Is it going on the Vega?

[Hemicolt]

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Hawkeye</div><div class="ubbcode-body">That's cool. Is it going on the Vega?

Marty </div></div>

Maybe. It depends if it can be added without cluttering up the dash. I will have the control unit for the Jac Pac air shocks, the Mallory rev limiter and the GM low coolant sensor. The dash may end up being to busy with all the add ons.
My son is telling me I have to use it. He said people will be blown away when they find out a headlight delay was available back in the old days..lol

I can't remember for sure but believe the white fans were for low hrspower imports/econoboxes. Stick with the green or orange ones to be era correct. never saw white ones on any muscle car.

The color of the blades was their rpm limts..green was rated to 8k and orange to 10k.

Ah, good to know - thanks. Given the amount of NMW stuff we will have on this car, the orange version might be the one to go with.

I was able to find parts for an restore the crappy little tach that was put on my 73 Camaro back in the 70's. I have no idea where it came from,but he owner back then had recipts from Motion and other speed shops.

The dashboard is a piece of mirrored acrylic from Motion that was put on the car back in about 1977. he tach is a mystery piece put on probably at the same time. When I found a spare parts tach the seller said it was supposedly removed from a 1968 Berger Camaro. Who knows. I only want to keep it for my own nostalgic reasons.

Here's some better pics of the signs Dan. The 3 were window art that I have framed to hopefully preserve. The others, hung inside the dealer. The large aluminum framed one is from 69 and the light ups are from 1967. I have all the individual 68's , but have run out of room to hang them.

Hey guys...I have a question about the Mickey Thompson valve/aftermarket covers...GM provided for the most part a baffle of sorts in their valve covers for obvious reason I suppose but what do you do if you want that day 2 look with those covers, or any of them really, that don't have the baffles? I remember I bought a set of Cal Customs in the 70's and with no baffles and just push in filters there was always a big mess to clean up every so often. What are you all doing to correct this or are you doing anything? At my age I really don't want to be cleaning ALL the time.

OK guys the Day2 bug has hit me...


Now that pic brings back memories. I had the exact same set up on my 69 Z28 back in 74. The gold moroso pieces are sweet, had all the bells and whistles just like in the pic. Had an accel dual point but can't remember which one, and the monster coil, yellow accel wires, the works. Also, added the first design Edelbrock Torqer X manifold with a 750 dbl pumper and white painted BlackJack headers. Added the -140 cam, 12.5's, a little port match work and smoothing and 4.88's. I was in the USAF and only had the car about 5 years that way before I had to unload it to go overseas. I cried.


Been looking at the Accel dual points on ebay lately but don't have a clue what I should look at bidding on...any ideas will help here guys. I still haven't installed my 302 yet and I do have a new -140 cam waiting to install. The engine is all stock specs otherwise, I DON'T PLAN ON GOING TO THE EXTREME I DID IN THE 70'S THOUGH. I just pulled 4.10's out to reinstall the 3.73's and I'm staying with the M20 not an M21. What do ya think...good plan?

Too bad the older gold moroso stuff isn't being made anymore. I do have a pair of the ugly red anodized covers...not a really big fan of that color.

[GaryC]

Ok...if I'm wrong let me know please...on the Accel dual point I should go with the #30100 is what I'm reading..T is for tach drive, so what is and S model? There are a few of the 30100's on ebay reasonable but just not sure of what I would be getting into with any of them...especially the 30100S.

[Salvatore]

Don't need the Accel dist. Just a good stock GM single point recurved. The worse thing you did was jack the back of the car up. So go get your jack back out and jack the back up again and install a set of .56's and you will be ok with the stock or 140 cam. Keep the M20 box also or you will be hurting. Hey go to .88's with a taller tire and you really will be OK, maybe even &quot;happy&quot;.

[GaryC]

Sam...

Ok, no dual point. I do however have my 480 all ready to go and had a small body hei built by Daves Smallbody HEI's to the same specs as the 480 about 10 years. I went with the specs provided by JohnZ and a few others, so I do have two ways to go there. I really liked the 4.88's first time around but I don't want to go there now. I ran 4.56's for a while in my 66 Chevy II and like that as well too. I think the 4.10s drove me crazy with this deep rumble that always seem to remind me I was driving a truck while in the car so I went back to the 3.73's. After that the car felt like I was running 3.55's but I am use to the 3.73's now and it is quiet.

The M20 is a keeper. I didn't like the M21 for a couple of reasons but the main one was the car rattled like crazy letting the clutch out in first gear. Since I put the M20 in I've been extremely happy with the launch and shift speed between gears. Most people I new getting into the racing scene just had to have an automatic...I stuck with the 4 speed and the M20 was the best in my opinion.

OK...I guess doing a little engine dress up from stock would be the way to go, but I have the ZL2 hood and stuff. All this was added before me. I think it was a flat hood car to start and if it was still a flat hood car my decision would be an easy one. I have my eye on a chambered exhaust but I don't know much about it. I do have headers already just blasting and repaint white.

[GaryC]

Hey Sam something else..I'm stuck on what head gaskets to buy for my 302 build. I have it narrowed to GM's 10105117 or the 3830711. Any suggestions here? Last I checked the pistons are .021 down from the deck surface and the heads have been lightly surface to make sure they were flat and the block has never been decked. I took a straight edge to the surface but didn't see anything gross.

[Salvatore]

I would ask my machine shop or engine builder. maybe the Fel Pro?

[PxTx]

You'll want to pour your heads so you the actual volume of the combustion chamber is known. Typically when the block is decked, they will tell you the deck heighth. I agree with Sammy if you have those resources. There are several variables to consider, over what you had mentioned.

[69 Post Sedan]

Gary, here are some gold Moroso SBC valve covers on eBay.

Did the Edelbrock Torker X look similar to the TM2R...with the carb sitting on a angle?

What machine shop or engine rebuilder??? The last machine shop friend of mine moved his business out of state to Havre De Grace Maryland a few years ago and I am the engine builder. It's amazing the lack of this kind of business in my location. I have to ask here or on other sites for the info/suggestions I need. There use to be shops all over the Dover Delaware area, but nothing now. It's a real struggle to even find somebody that rebuilds starters, and alternators...

I have no idea how to do that...I've used the composite gaskets with no problems and spoke to many members on and off line and the 2 I mentioned in my post seem to be the best solution. My heads are the stock 186's-64CC's??? and I'm thinking I need to stay below what .050 quench correct??

I don't want to sound like I'm making things difficult, but assuming the heads ARE to GM specs along with the rest of it without verifying is taking a gamble. Usually things result in less than spec compression etc when assuming the parts are as GM literature indicates. I would just hate to see you leave some performance in the table.

Yeah...that's more than I can do. I have done a few engines and used the composite head gasket and never have run into issues but those engines were just the run of the mill rebuild lo-po small blocks I read about rebuilding from the Motor manuals and asking questions from the many older mechanics that use to be around. Nobody around anymore to ask those questions or to show guidance that I can find.

I've collected several old speed catalogs prior to 1965, this would be an example of some of the better parts available. I'm too young to remember anything Spark-o-matic other than some K-mart car speakers and that sort of thing and spoiled by all the awesome parts from the later 60's and 70's.

Cool Kurt. Looks like you snagged a YC-310-HP.

[69 Post Sedan]

It has a number 24100V cast on the shaft and it's a dual point.

[mockingbird812]

Yep - that would be a correct number for a 310. These have an SB/BB application and were used on numerous BM conversions.

Summit has Coker Pro Trac N50's for sale, and I was wondering if anyone on here has had any experience with them? I was considering getting a set for a stock rear end '68 Camaro that's raised in the rear some but wasn't sure what size/offset rim I'd need to get to ensure they don't rub.

Any thoughts/info you all can provide is appreciated, thanks.

Those will never stick under stock fenders no matter the wheel offset..figure on adding either rearched springs, air shocks or shackles.

Maybe not any KID, but there are plenty of old Stock, Super/Stock guys that will tell you the same thing!!!! A certain old SS guy who was also nation F/C champ told me this with my '69 Nova. BUT they just need to be installed correctly. But with today's technology, we have got away from that and are using leaf spring &quot;sliders&quot; and roller bearing to achieve the very same thing the shackles did..

[Day2_69Z]

A Cool. &quot;HOT&quot;. trick on. first gen Camaros to raise the rear a bit is:
Use Nova/Buick/olds Front Spring Boxes.....
they look identical to Camaro, except the Spring Bolt is Lower on the boxes/ perches.
by about 5/8-3/4 inch.
additionally,,.. using modified stock shackles (lengthened) or shortening aftermarket ones, you can 'disguise' the C/L height..

no need for re arching springs or using those gawd awful replacements......

Are these the vintage style and worth picking up to get fixed, or no??

Thanks

No, they are modern flat spoke.

Not to sound like a jerk, but if you can't see the difference then why do you want them? Most will be content with a new, shiny set of Cragars anyways.

[markinnaples]

Hey, thanks for the kind words, lol.

I just bought a 68 Camaro that *needs* period correct ones.

Mark, these are the modern flat spoke you an get for $180 each new and it would cost $350-400 each to replate/repair. Those wheels are worth 2.00 each ..scrap. Best thing about that ebay ad is it show how tough the aluminum Cragar center section is...I'm surprised it did not break. I sent you a facebook message.

Went to buy a car yesterday. Instead i bought the rims off it. They look better in person.

[SuperNovaSS]

Small Mopar bolt pattern? I thought 5 on 4.5 was large mopar pattern. Very cool rims!

----Those rims are among the roughest Hurst rims I have seen. Looking forward to the restoration of them!.....Bill S

Smart move John. Think that's called making lemonade from lemons!!! <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif

[DW31S]

I know my '69 W-31 that was raced as a brand new car has the style on the right. This was in reference to the line-locks on page 37
