For those of you that want to know more about the background on this rig, I've written up some of the story.

Sometimes you get a head scratcher prob that gives you fits. One note on the points and distributor topic. I've had my 390 truck for 27yrs and was real good at replacing p & r on it. Then about 12yrs ago I took them out and installed a Pertronix kit on it. Haven't had to touch it since.

 

You can forget about the timing chain because there isn't one on an inline 6.

 

But a 360 does.

 

You're right, I read the first line wrong.
