it is entirely possible that some of the original type modules are hard to get but you would want to use the blue strain relief duraspark II anyway as they are he good one. the early ones did have some problems as this stuff was developed and only fit a year or two and are possibly obsolete now but my bet is the guy was full of dog doo and its just more ebay hype. just because a guy typed it does not make it true. there is one guy who sells carburetors and his auctions always say that these are getting hard to find. anyone ever have trouble finding a stock replacement carb for a run of the mill vehicle? he isn't selling special stuff just used old carbs from cars and trucks. like i said just ebay hype. hawkrod
