Thanks for the info. I was able to contact Chelsea and with the info you provide about the.truck was able to come up with a solution. Thanks again for the info.
Was wondering, where is the best place to go online for engine parts for this truck? I need to order ignition parts, points, condenser, etc.. if I was looking in the regular parts stores, like rock auto, which only shows parts up to a f500, should they be the same parts as long as engine is the same?

Registration is required for PartsVoice, not so with rearcounter. Searching for NOS parts is free on both sites.
1948 thru 1989 Ford truck parts catalogs are available on CD's from hipoparts.com
Here are samples of illustration and text pages from the 1973/79 Ford Heavy Truck Parts Catalog:

Get yourself some 'Cornbinder' parts catalogs (try: faxonautolit.com), then type the part numbers into PartsVoice.com & rearcounter.com.

I know more about the Blue Ridge Parkway (it was closed north of Boone last time I was there) than I know about wiring, can look up the part numbers and that's about it.

500 and larger series trucks with FT engines didn't come with DuraSpark. FT engines cancelled at the end of the 1978 model run.

How 'bout a 1997 F-800 VIN 1FTYF80C2VVA36955. Are any small parts available for the cab? Why is it so difficult to get parts for Ford trucks? No website I've visited so far supports an F-800 ):

Spending my money.
Ordered that CD of my truck glad you put that link up for those. Figure that is the best $27. I could spend.Now I have that CD, Wiring Diagram, Spec book, 1987, 6.6 and 7.8 motor book. 1987 Shop and motor manuals Bod, Chassis and Electrical to look through also. Now If I could only read wiring digrams. These have to be in french as my redneck southern brain can't figure them out.
