the Rev Pol name was for reverse polarity that was used in their special design coil.

I think they were trying to tell me the same thing that you said, but I was a wee "dizzy" myself. It all makes sense. Didn't want to sound rude. |
Re: Mallory Ignition Parts
Rev-Pol switch is in!!! Seems to be nothing more than a two position switch with a big blue light??? The directions are nothing more than what I had posted of the Rev-Pol coil. Very odd. .... I will take pics of the switch in detail. ( Not much really to it.)
I also received my Mallory ignition overhaul kit that is dated 2/72. The Mallory sticker on the front is in the blue lettering and the tag on the top is the red foil sticker, not the red anodized aluminum plate. |
Re: Mallory Ignition Parts
Hey "dizzy" that distributor still won't run any better than a stock Chevy set up correctly. But have fun anyway!

Re: Mallory Ignition Parts
Most of the Motion cars at the show were running a Mallory distributor. All the cool kids are doing it!

Re: Mallory Ignition Parts
I noticed that too Paul. I knew most ran Mallory dizzys but did not know most used the Mallory coils and Capacitive Discharge.

Re: Mallory Ignition Parts
Sammy, I thought you were the Prez? The COPO and the display got rave reviews. A gold in Day-2 concourse says it all.
It will be awhile until I can get pics of the switch up. I left my camera in the professors trunk. Duh me. |
Re: Mallory Ignition Parts
The switch!

The odd thing about this coil is that it seems to have a thin metal plate isntead of a foil sticker?? |
Re: Mallory Ignition Parts
Here is the complete rev/pol kit for an AMX. Evidently these things were sold as a package.
AMX Rev/Pol on eBay |
Re: Mallory Ignition Parts
It looks like that dizzy has one condenser and a vacuum advance?
|
Re: Mallory Ignition Parts
I does Jed. I believe a rev/pol set up could use one or two condensers.
|
Re: Mallory Ignition Parts
I saw this in Summit
a Mallory elec conversion kit , says fits the HP series http://www.summitracing.com/parts/MA...el%7cHP+series |
Re: Mallory Ignition Parts
|
Re: Mallory Ignition Parts
Will that work on one on those dizzy's?
|
Re: Mallory Ignition Parts
Apparently the HP series.
|
Re: Mallory Ignition Parts
Well, I guess it would work for us? That is if you have the right coil. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img] [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]

Re: Mallory Ignition Parts
I think you'll need a tach that goes to Eleven (insert British accent).

Re: Mallory Ignition Parts
Perfect NOS MINT in the box.

Re: Mallory Ignition Parts
HA HA HA! I did not know that my camera had changed!
|
Re: Mallory Ignition Parts
Nice score Jed,so cool.

Re: Mallory Ignition Parts
So, looking back on this thread what was the conclusion on the Mallory setup?
- stick with a stock GM unit, perhaps with an under-the-cap conversion - Mallory single point with Mallory coil - Mallory double point with Mallory coil - Mallory rev pol with 'strip' switch and Mallory coil I need to decide on the initial setup to install in Ben's Nova within the next week or so..... |
Re: Mallory Ignition Parts
For a nice vintage look and good performance a Mallory YC-310-HP or its variants will do a nice job. Parts are readily available.
|
Re: Mallory Ignition Parts
Can you install a breakerless kit under the cap?
|
Re: Mallory Ignition Parts
i believe those are available. I'll check
|
Re: Mallory Ignition Parts
Sounds like you can. Take a look here!
