Track Boss ready to run Duraspark distributor...

We are working with Performance Distributors in making a ready to run version of the Duraspark.

We are attempting to retain an OE Duraspark look.

We are manufacturing the body in-house and Performance Distributors will be assembling the distributor with a performance module and

recurving the mechanical advance to each customers requirements.

We will also make the bodies without the provision for vac advance.

Here is a start....

But, you will have the vacuum advance models as well? That's the one I want. What bearings? Any news on how easily the centrifugal timing will be to change?

The majority of them will probably have vac advance.
It will have a full length oilite bearing, that is what DUI currently does
and have had "0" problems.

DUI will curve the spark per customer request.
So at this point, it would be no different then an OE duraspark.
Since they will come with the proper ignition curve, that will probably satisfy a large majority of the customer.

Track Boss RTR Duraspark
1st operation.
A couple "fat finger" entries. But this is a prototype. It is work in progress.
O-ring groove missing and a couple other areas.
Not bad for a guy who only programs with G&M code.
No CAD/CAM for this guy (my machinist)
