Take care!]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[I have just finished rebuilding my 49 flathead and have decided to install a dual carb intake my father had in the shop. I have heard and read that by installing dual carbs it reduces my total vac which intern will play hell with my distrib / vac adv. I have rebuilt my generator to a 12 volt system and I'm not sure what to do with the distrib. Is there someone who makes a conversion kit for the orig distrib? any ideas would be great. thanks]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[My business "Vintage Ignition" specializes in rebuilding & restoring vintage Mallory distributors such as the double-life dual point & rev-pol units. I would be able to help with any mechanical issues as well as full cosmetic restoration. I also offer electronic conversions for them as well for those who want vintage look but updated performance. I can supply packard 440 solid core wire and Rajah clips as well.<br />
<br />
I look forward to working with anyone I can to get their distributor up to speed. This is not a spam or sales speech. I want to offer my expertise to anyone I can as these vintage units are more often finding their way into trash bins than they are cars....Shoot me an email if I can help.<br />
<br />
Thanks.<br />

      <description><![CDATA[modern motor oil could be killing your engine..<br />
<br />
since the 1990s the EPA has been rapidly removing an additive called ZDDP from engine oil, this additive created an important barrier of zinc and phosphorous to prevent cam and lifter scuffing.<br />
<br />
lucky for you there is now an American made oil that is fully fortified with zddp please read more at www.classiccaroil.com]]></description>
