    Got a stock distributor?

    I know your pain, man. I just won an ebay auction for a stock dizzy, so I'll get that one fixed up and try it. After that, if it's no help, I may go after the ignition switch and connectors / wiring.

    Intermittent miss...

    Intermittent miss...

    Rebuilt A9P installed, no help. Seems to run better overall, but still has the miss. Started instantly. :nice: Got a $10 bid in on a used Ford dizzy, auction closes tonight. Does anyone think the MAF meter could cause this? I wouldn't think so. I'm running a used C&L 73 that I got off CList...

    is my GT really a GT

    Not good or bad, just different. But yeah, I guess without lock and window actuators, it would be a bit lighter... by at least 3 or 4 pounds. ;)

    is my GT really a GT

    My GT has manual windows and manual locks, but power mirrors. Yeah, I know it's a factory GT. All depends on how it was ordered.
