Hello Guy's,
I ran my 71 on the chassis dyno tonight and found I have a problem. The engine pulled like a freight train up until 4900 rpm's (311 hp)then just died. We finally found the problem. When I bought the car the distributor had been changed to an HEI. However, they never changed the ignition wiring. The ignition wire is still the resistance wire used for a points setup. My question is..... where can I find a 12 volt source that is ignition switch controlled. I have plenty of room in the fuse box, I just need a little direction.
Thanks,
Steve Haraway
