Yes, that is exactly what I was wondering. Quite surprising that it doesn't need anything supporting it. But hey, as long as it works! :) Thanks!

Hello, I'm still trying to do the disc brake conversion on my 74, and while I was replacing the passenger side spindle, I noticed that there was nothing supporting the alxe on the outside of the axle housing. Is that correct? I don't remember what the drivers side did, but it definately...

Thanks! That solves that question. For the stripped out ones should I replace the knuckle or is a bolt on the back good enough? Sam

Hello everyone, I am starting to do the chevy disc brake conversion on my 74, and had a question on the knuckles. I went to go remove the drum backing plates and noticed that one of the bolts holding it to the knuckle just turned, so I looked in the back and it had a nut on the end. So I...

I still currently have the resistor on there, and it does run just fine. I've just run across several mentionings like this: What years did the Duraspark II run? I think I have the II. I hope. ;D

Do I still need the ballast resistor now that I have done the duraspark conversion? From my understanding the resistor was required b/c points couldn't handle the increased voltage from an aftermarket igntion. Thanks! Sam

Would like to say thanks to Raymond Knight of SVA Power Products (RRRAAAYYY2) for the SVA Lightning alternator. Just got it installed, and it is amazing! I'm not sure if it's my imagination or not, but it seems to start faster, and idle smoother. Used to have a rough idle, now it seems a lot...

I still haven't put on the new "condensor" if that's what it actually is, but after re-doing the ground, it only ticks back and forth 14-16. From what RRRAAAYYY2 says 15.3 is the max, is 16 pushing it too much? Thanks for the help. Sam

Ok, got more news. They called it a condenser, but they found it on the ignition section of their book. The replacement they gave me is a different size; they were also not sure if this is what I needed either. :( Is it time for a 1 wire alternator? Do they sell a 1 wire 3g alt that works...

Looks like that "cigar" shaped object is what reduces the voltage? Cuz that wire going into it is hot. Had to find out the hard way. :( But I will take it up to the parts store to identify what it is...

Hi everyone, Finally got the Bronco running again after 2 years. (WOO!!!) But here's the problem list: When I rev the engine, the volt meter also increases to around 18 volts. Is my regulator shot? And I moved the old regulator over on the firewall to make room for the duraspark ignition...
