    The cap is a very sloppy fit on the distributor housing. Have to feel where the cap should be, and lock it down there. For the price, it's disappointing.

    This product installed easily, and the engine fired up.

    This fixed a low voltage problem going to my coil due to a bad ballast resistor wire that was part of my wiring harness located under the dash. This was not going to be easy to repair otherwise.

    I have a 87 ford 302 in my 40 ford sedan currently running a mallory distributor with the pertronix pick up. my motor has the roller rocker cam and lifters; my question is this; is the gear on the end of your distributor set up for a roller cam? there is a difference in ford cams between rollers and flat tappet cams.
