Thinking of making up a simple distributor machine:
Motor for 300 to 3000 rpm (which implies 600 to 6000rpm
at the engine) - fine fo my needs.
Timing Light.
Degree wheel.
Metal lathe -- custom made adapter and fixture.
QUESTION 1: All the British cars that I can think of
have CCW (counter clock wise) rotating distributors.
Not sure on "detroit iron"... does anyone know of any
CW rotating distributors?
QUESTION 2: HP rating. Not much mass on a destributor,
rough guess would be a 1/4hp motor would be more than
enough. Can anyone with an old SUN machine confirm
the size of the motor?
Thanks,
