Re: B30-E & F: Specific Differences??? 140-160 72-75

posted by  someone claiming to be George Downs on  Sat Dec 1 06:43 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Well, I stand corrected and I guess I am looking for a 75 B30

ignition system, since my current distributor has about 100,000

miles on it, and that, in my experience, is about how long they last.

I guess you know that, if they REALLY need to be changed, (and in my

experience with plastigage and micrometer measurements, that is pretty

RARE), the B20 shells are identical and you can frequently save a couple

from the old set. In fact, the last time I checked prices on them,

the B30 set, with two more sets of shells, cost MORE THAN twice what

the B20 set cost, so you could save money by buying two B20 sets

and throwing the extra parts away! (applies to both rod and main brgs)

I have a complete spare engine and quite a few engine parts so if there

is something I might help you with, e-mail me offline.
