A PL521 Found Me

Nice man good job. Get a new bottom trim after you pull the dent out and it will look like nothing never happened.

Thanks.

I have a straight bumper sitting in the bed. 🙂

I enjoyed the video.  Man, those points and condenser are a fiddly little pain in the ass!

 

Nice job getting it going.  Sounds pretty smooth, actually.

Yeah they are a pain haha.

 

Glad you liked the video.

Here are a few pics

When I first got this running I had to rotate the distributor all the way one way and barely had it timed. 

I go  through fixing that and setting timing with a test light.

Steve, keep eyes peeled for oil pump from any D21 Hardbody, E or DE will do.

I have a few KA ones hanging around 🙂

 

Need to order a gasket set for this thing

Dude. I am not sure how I feel about this switch from OICs or it didn't happen, to videos.... Good work either way. Rad/Red 521.

why not try this Chinese Distributor install and give it a rating

Im sure the timing plate has to be moded  or a new one made with increased slot movment which Jeff can make for you

Same, but after the photobucket thing I figure youtube at least has incentive to not mess with the content.
