casper50 Posted May 15, 2015 Report Posted May 15, 2015 Nice info on a much discussed subject. Might be good to place it in the tech section also. Quote
Joe Flanagan Posted May 15, 2015 Report Posted May 15, 2015 Can these be found anywhere? And are they all bare copper? Quote
desoto1939 Posted May 16, 2015 Author Report Posted May 16, 2015 They are not bare wire they are cloth covered and have the small stranded cooper wire and the proper end clips or rings for the particular dizzy. You might be able to get these from NAPA but you should also look for them when going to a swap meet. This is why I collect the various car and repair catalogs to get this info so these are the things that should should be looking for at swap meets. Rich Hartung desoto1939@aol.com Quote
desoto1939 Posted May 16, 2015 Author Report Posted May 16, 2015 another good way to get the wires is to purchase a NOS breaker plate that is the one for your specific dizzy. rich hartung Quote
