Re: Mallory Ignition Parts
I caught up with Jed last night, he has everything I need / want - NOS! That pic of the setup used in the Roof Deuce did it for me. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]
Benjamin has no clue how fortunate he is..... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]

Re: Mallory Ignition Parts
Hey! Im still around! Just been busy with a house and wife and two dogs and trying to make little NovaJeds. Lol I did catch up with Marlin and I do have most of what he needs. The only thing I dont have is Mallory NOS wires. I do have the coil and the dizzy though.

So, I have this Mallory setup, but stupid question: how do I determine the #1 spark plug wire on the cap? I had picked up a used unit some time ago, but no instructions - and I'm getting close to the point of needing to install this thing and fire the engine....

Marlin,
You can make #1 anywhere you want it to be. With the engine at TDC on #1 firing stroke, put in the distributor with the rotor pointing where-ever you want, then just put #1 plug wire in the cap hole above it. Follow the cap holes CW with the firing order. Verne |

Sam, where did you get the brass thing on the side and all the nice shiney clips?

Marlin,
The brass thing is an original Mallory condenser. I am pretty sure I found it on ebay. If you put "vintage Mallory" in Ebay search they come up with some regularity (1 to 2 x /month) although they're getting pricey i.e. I've seen transactions at upwards of $60 for an NOS in the box. Most who sell them don't know how to test them so that is a crap shoot - on the other hand they generally hold up well over time. Many will have slight splits in the brass casing but this does not necessarily affect performance and can be rotated on the dizzy to hide the split. The clips are the original cap clips on the Mallory dizzy that the Roofs used in their Deuce. I did my own plating to restore them to their original luster. Now that would be a fun father/son project!

Thanks Sam, I'm cleaning up the unit that I have, and will install a breakerless module inside as well - turns out they have different modules for the 4 lobe vs 8 lobe dizzy's! I have a 4 lobe unite which I assume is a 'Double Life' - guess I need to find one of those tags as well.....
