News 10.2 Distributor Conversion

“NO POINTS” IS A GOOD POINT
In this article, we are converting a points
distributor to an electronic distributor. The
advantages you get in this conversion are
worth every penny. This installation delivers a
big bang for the buck; your motor will see more
fuel efficiency, run smoother and have higher
horsepower. Points will be a thing of the past,
just like VHS tapes have been replaced by
DVD’s. But if you want to save money, buy the
parts and do the labor yourself, which is fairly
easy. Or if you are in need of a complete
distributor, then we sell brand new electronic
distributors. On our car, we kept the stock
distributor and installed the electronic module
conversion, FlameThrower 45K coil, and 8mm
spark plug wires. Though the wires can be time
consuming to install, the extra hot spark they
deliver is worth every minute. Since we ran the
Flamethrower coil, there was no need to run a
ballast resistor on the firewall. The coil has the
built in resistance to keep your module firing
correctly. You must read all instructions before
doing anything to your car. The instructions
that come with the module and coils have lots
of good information in them. When we finished
the car, we didn’t realize the ballast resistor
needed to go, which made the car run really
rough because it was pulling more resistance
to the module, which kept the plugs from
getting the right spark. Once we eliminated the
resistor, everything smoothed out. So, carefully
read your instructions before you start, as well
as while you’re doing the job. There are a few
spark plug wire holders to choose from. The
#1446 spark plug shields are used on the 5657 ram horn exhaust manifolds and can not be
used on motors with the side engine mount
bosses. Otherwise, just stick with the #1158,
1159, 1160 wire supports. The firing order for a
6-cyl motor is 1-5-3-6-2-4, with # 1 cylinder
being in front. On the V-8 engine, the firing
order is 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2 with 1,3,5,7 cylinders
are on the Drivers side and 2,4,6,8 being on
the Passenger side. The firing order goes in
the clockwise
direction of the
distributor cap.

GENERAL MANAGERS MESSAGE
Spring is back and so
is the weather!!! I don’t
know about you, but I
am really looking
forward to some
warmth. Not just
because I get to throw
on the shorts and
sandals, but because
that means our outdoor
show season is back. We all get to take those
classic Chevy winter projects out for a good long
drive and some great outdoor meets. Nothing
excites me more than getting out to a good swap
meet or car show.
In the spirit of putting our classics back on the
road we are highlighting some of our parts that
make the ride a little smoother and safer. On
page four we have showcased our new Pertronix
ignition line. Some of you may have already
heard about Pertronix, and let me tell you that
we have found it all to be true. We have done
an installation article on our 1956 Convertible
with their products and were amazed at how
much better it ran when we were finished. On
page five we are listing some brand new parts
that didn’t make the catalog. The pictures tell it
all but these new pulley systems are the only
way to go for today’s Hot Rodder. Also, on
pages six and seven we have laid out a great
deal of our brake and suspension parts. It
seems to be the time of year when everyone
wants to get the stopping problems ironed out
and we wanted to try and help a little.
As I said before, this is the beginning of my
favorite time of the year for our cars and all of us
couldn’t be more excited. Keep an eye open for
a whole pile of new and exciting parts from us
this year. Thanks for enabling all of us at
Danchuk to do what we love in life, fix classic
Chevrolets.
Happy Restoring,

DISTRIBUTOR INSTALLATION ARTICLE
• Lacquer thinner
• WD-40 or other lubricant
• Shop rags
Different tools will be needed depending on
your application.
Before you begin, lift your hood and lay fender
covers, like our Danchuk covers, #1048, on
both sides of the front fenders. This will save
your paint.
Removal:
1.) Remove both
battery cables on
your 55-56 chevy. On
a 1957, just disconnect your negative
battery cable.
2.) Remove the
battery and tray from
your 55-56 chevy
using your 1/2" socket
and drive with the
small and long
extensions or use the
1/2" wrench.
3.) Remove the air cleaner.
4.) Remove the distributor vacuum line with the
3/8" and 7/16" wrenches. Other vacuum lines
will be rubber and you can just pull them off.
5.) Remove your coil. Mark your wires with the
masking tape so you know where to put the
wires back on
correctly. If you use
the Flamethrower
coil, you will have to
do some wire
changes. Remove
the wires with your 3/
8" wrench. We removed the coil with the coil
bracket on. Just take your 1/2" socket and long
extension and remove the 2 bolts holding on
the bracket to the intake manifold. Lift off your
coil and put it on the bench.
6.) Remove your
distributor cap and
rotor using your
medium screwdriver
to undo the clips on
the cap. You may
remove the spark
plug wires from the cap, but mark them with
the masking tape if you’re not sure how they
go back. The firing order is at the beginning of
this article if you get lost, and/or the shop
manual tells you how to get them back into
position. On this car, we took out all the spark
plug wires and started over with brand new
8mm wires.
7.) Remove the 2
screws that are
holding the points
and condenser onto
the breaker plate
inside the distributor
with your small
screwdriver. Take
your needle nose
pliers and remove
the points and
condenser from the
distributor. Take a
rag and put some lacquer thinner on it and
remove any grease or dirt from inside the
distributor. Now it should be clean and ready
for the new module.
Installation:
1.) Take your new
ignition module
conversion out of
the box and read
the instructions on
how it gets
mounted in the
distributor.
On this car, we
mounted the adaptor
plate in first with a
small Phillips screw
provided. Then we
put the module, with
wires, in position
over the studs and tightened it down with the
1/4" wrench. One side was a tight fit to get to
the nut, so we used the needle nose pliers to
tighten the nut. DO NOT over tighten the
screws and nuts. It is easy to strip out the

threads. On the kits,
they might come with
extra parts such as
ours did. It came with
an extra adaptor plate
to shim, but the
instructions said to
only use it with a
certain kit which we
were not using.
2.) Feed the red and
black wires through
the distributor hole
that the old distributor wire came
through. Make sure
the wires are free of
any moving parts
inside the distributor.
Now pull the
grommet, attached to the wires, up to the
distributor wire hole and push onto the
distributor.
3.) Install the rotor
and cap. Take the
coil out of the box
and install that into
the old coil bracket
and reinstall it back
on your car.
4.) Connect the black wire on the negative side
of the coil and the red wire will go to the
positive side of the coil along with your existing
wire that you took off. Since we ran the
Flamethrower coil, we took off the ballast
resistor on the firewall and tied the wires
together that came from the ballast. This way,
all the current goes straight to the coil from the
ignition switch instead of being resisted
through the ballast. Note: remember to read
the coil and module instructions to see what
application is right for your conversion. If you
don’t use the high extreme coil, your wiring
hookup will be different for the red wire coming
out of the distributor.
Installing the Spark Plug Wires:
1.) Remove the spark
plug wires and ends
from the box. Sort
them out because
you will have HEI
ends and regular
ends. These spark
plug wires are cut to fit, which is good because
you will not have an excess amount of wires
looped around anything. The only draw back is
that it is very time consuming to put these
together. You have to take your time in order
not to cut into the core of the plug wires.
2.) First, put your
longest spark plug
wire on your #1
spark plug. (Remember, your firing order
numbers are listed at
the beginning of this
article). Feed that
through your wire
support holders and
up to your #1 slot on
your distributor cap.
Hopefully you
marked which one
that was on your
new cap. Take your sharp wire cutters and cut
your spark plug wire to the length that you want
it. I pulled the wire back out and put it on the
bench to do the rest of the work.
3.) Take your angle
boot and spray it with
WD-40 inside and
shake the excess
out. Now spray the
end of the wire and
feed your angle boot
onto the wire and pull
enough through to put
the end on. Measure
up 5/8" and cut or
score a line all the
way around the
insulation of the wire.
Pick up the wire and
bend it so that you
can carefully cut
around the line, but
remember not to cut
the center core. Now
pull the insulation off
what you have cut.
Take the center core,
bend it down and
around and install the
correct end on so
that the core is in
between the gold end
and the wire
insulation. Now crimp
the end on with your
wire stripper pliers
and bend it so that it matches the spark plug
boot. Spray the end with your WD-40 so you
can move the boot
back over the end
that you put on. We
chose the gold ends
because we are
running the stock
distributor cap. The
other ends are for the HEI cap.
4.) Now you have to
do this for the rest of
the 7 cylinders.
Finish each one
completely as you
do it. This will save
some confusion
later if they were just sitting scattered. The
8mm wires fit really nice into the stock wire
supports. No modification was needed on the
wire holders. The finish product is nice and
neat. Once you’ve finished, install the battery
tray and battery back in the car.
Other Notes:
Start the car up and check to see if your
running smooth or rough. If problems occur or
if you don’t like how rough it’s running, read
the questions and answers of the module
instructions. It gives some good tips on what
to look for. Otherwise check your wires, make
sure they are in the correct firing order on
your cap and on the correct corresponding
numbers of the spark plugs. Also double
check your timing with a timing light just to
make sure everything is dialed in. If you buy
the stock wire supports, use your assembly
manual to look at so you know exactly how
and where all the wires are to be mounted.
It’s a great help. All the V-8 engine stuff is in
the back R.P.O section of the manual.

When your goal is a great spark, every component in the
ignition system is important. Don’t let your coil be the “weak
link”. To maximize energy and increase reliability over the
entire RPM range, choose from the two styles of ignition coils
now available at Danchuk. Canister style oil filled coils are
available in chrome and black. The Flame-Thrower 40,000
volt coil is designed for use with the Ignitor igntion system, but
can be used with other induction ignition systems. The FlameThower II 45,000 volt coil is a super low 6.0 ohm resistance
coil designed for use with the Ignitor II and is compatible with
capacitive discharge systems.
