Dan,

Bill Jacobs Chevy in Joliet. I should have posted that (Duh),it is just a couple of block from the shop. I also got this shifter from the same guy that had the MSD. It is a dual gate for 66-67 gto

I had an NOS 5 just like that one that I sold last summer. No dates, but the guy I got it from said it was early 70s.

Should one be concerned with buying these old MSD / Mallory electronics at swap meets? I'd like a full Day 2 setup for the Nova, but honestly don't know what I'm looking for - or what to look out for!

The cool thing with the MSD is you can send it to MSD and they will upgrade it to the modern internals. It is just a matter of finding a nice case.

Nos Mallory coils are still available and work just fine, 2875s I think. The distributors are rebuildable and are very well made and durable.

more people in those days ran the Mallory stuff than the MSD box. remember Day-2 is &quot;street&quot; and not track only. MSD was the hot set up for the strip in those days. A worked single point stock Chevy distributor and the black Mallory coil had my nova running 11.50's at 118 mph pretty consistently.

I like the Mallory stuff..... I have my eyes open for some vintage stuff!

Went over to a local friends garage today as he had decided to part with some items. Picked up a set of McCreary tires (free), Nova L88 hood........and check out the sun tach parts with original Sun batteries!
