[DeTomaso] Cam change and Vacuum Advance distributor

[Daniel C Jones]

Tom,

Turns out that Mallory unit I mentioned doesn't fit the Ford dual
point distributors.
The Pertronix does.  I've got one waiting on me when I get back Japan to test.
The Crane steel distributor gear is not currently available though it
looks like
Crane may re-organize and re-open.  The Ford steel distributor gear is
supposedly
no longer available (wonder if it was made by Crane for FRPP?).  I picked up a
spare set of Crane link bar lifters while I could.  Hopefully Crane
will rise from the
ashes.
