    Mallory Unilite module

    some causes 1- You can't have the distributor plugged in when you charge the battery, 2- You can't jump start (with dist plugged in), 3-Be careful putting cap on. Keep cap even and do each clip. I "rocked" mine from side to side (one side is easier to clip) and toasted a cap and module...

    HELP! NO FIRE TO DISTRIBUTOR 351C

    safety neutral q?

    I would gues they are the same, or certainly could be made to work. These seem to be more transmission than body based. What does the wiring harness it plugs into look like and what are the colors?

    70 MACH 1 HAS NO FIRE!! HELP

    Printed circuit repair

    Thanks guys. I used a 2 part plastic super glue to attach the copper, then scraped the copper with a razor blade to clean the contact area. I checked continuity over the copper surfaces and am glad to say my lights and gauges now work.

Advance (turn rotor clockwise) or retard it (counter clock) until you end up with...

    71 mach 1 - need front suspension advice

    The 71-73 was designed to work with the 429 (1971) so you can use the big block factory springs. I lowered my 72 and put large (r) sway bars front and rear. I also have a 67 with a 460 and did the MII suspension conversion, mostly to gain room for the engine, not handling.

    Power windows 71-73

    Any suggestions on finding window tracks and motors I can use to convert my manual windows to power in my '72 vert? I can't find aftermarket that will work and haven't lucked into a parts car. Are Cougar or any other cars the same or anyone have a suggestion? THANKS.
