Hey guys
Anyone running a gmpp front drive distributor that would be able to get me spark plug wire lengths. Im trying to have a custom set made up but my motor is apart at the moment. Thanks in advance.

That looks like a Mustang dash, but I recognize nothing else. What is that? It looks very clean. You've given me some ideas for my new setup.

Not hard at all... hardest part of the install is finding 0.025" drill bits for the oiling holes in the cam retainer plate.

otherwise its fairly straight forward
