Ok, anyone have an actual Mallory parts book from the 80's? 90's?
I have a 2655302 crab cap tach drive distributor that I would like to find the correct parts for. The biggest issue I found is getting the correct rotor. The crab cap is available and I'm sure the points and condenser are generic.
You can buy a 26 series rotor, but it is NOT for a crab cap(which is a much shorter rotor). Google lists nothing, I talked to Summit racing and they have no books or information on the REAL part number I could look for. I've searched plenty of places, but nothing comes up. Heck the crab cap number comes up as a std cap now if you search it. I know a few guys here have offered to sell me a crab cap distributor, but I only need a rotor(or two for that matter). I have the taller tach drive distributor and I thought I had a cap/rotor for it, but can't seem to find them right now.
I have a 2655301 in the wagon, basically the same distributor but it is a std cap. You can't mix/match parts because the cap register diameter is smaller on the crab cap model. Now, that's not to say I don't just make a ring to change that and make a std cap fit(and rotor). I'm going to do some measuring on the wagon and the blower motor. I know a std cap will fit(I have stock ford distributor in it now), but a crab cap would allow me to actually REMOVE the cap with the blower in place which is the whole reason for this project.
