Get the top load cap and a basic set of wires. The performance increasefor
the high price spread is very slim compared to the price paid.
Its very possible that your LOCAL parts supplier can order the cap and wires
for you over night for a good price.

My 64B, although running good, has an intermittent misfire which I believe is
due to a problem with the ignition wire (plug #3) or cap. Replaced spark
plugs
- #3 still showing soot deposits on the white insulator, compression 150 +/-
5
psi on all 4 cylinders (cold).
But anyway, I figured I would replace cap and ignition wires, the problem is
that Moss wants a princely sum for the archaic cap with its spike connectors
and the basic wires. The ignition wire set lists at $42.95 versus $12.95 for
the top entry style. But Moss is also pushing the Cobalt premium wire set at
$34.95, all I have to do is ditch the old style cap and go with the post-67
top entry cap. So many choices. Any comments on these different wire types? I
am trying to keep my 64B mostly original but if these premium wires make for
significantly better performance, I will take that over nostalgia.
