    47 V8 ignition mystery

    IF, you change to a crab cap configuration, be sure and use the correct rotor. The "rabbit ear" rotor is not compatible with a crab cap.

    Fender Welting

    Anyone have suggestions or can direct me to information on how to best install fender welting. FWIW I have a 1947 fordor sedan. Any assistance appreciated.

    Distributor cap to rotor clearance

    Do you have the correct rotors? I changed from rabbit ear distributor cap to crab and it required the corresponding rotor.

    Oil leak

    Are you using a speedy sleeve on the crank pulley? Mine has a reverse spiral groove in it to (I assume) decrease oil loss which plays heck with the one piece seal. Speedy sleeve covers the groove and protects the one piece seal. I have no problem with leaks.

    I recently have become the owner of a King magneto/coil/condenser tester Model 24-603 sans instruction manual. Anyone out there familiar with these units? Would greatly appreciate any info you could offer on its operation. Thank you in advance.

    Wire splicing

    Can the courtesy light wire be fished through the A pillar etc? My '47 Fordor has the original headliner and alas the only wire in the harness that hasn't been replaced.

    Inductive tach

    Within 50-75 RPM. Used my timing light tach (which is accurate) as the benchmark. As mentioned, just looking for a guideline as to RPMs vs road speed.

    Inductive tach

    No. 8 plug wire closest to firewall driver's side (if I have my numbering right)
