pertronix being considered

Hello everyone, I am considering the install of the basic pertronix unit, but wanted to ask if its required to remove the distributor from the engine to add the spacer above the gear at the bottom of the shaft? If yes why does this have to be done?

Vintage Air AC

Posted by Chase on March 21, 2024 at 5:55am 0 Comments

Hey everyone, has anybody done a Vintage Air AC/Heat setup in their car? I want to bypass the old vacuum setup and go with a Vintage Air Gen 2 model. Before I get started, does anyone have any experience with this? (Which model to go with, do’s and dont’s, etc.) It looks pretty involved. Any and all info/pics would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

There is a restoration service called The Horn Works who my son…
