    I have a REALLY old Mallory dual points FE Ford Distributor. I would really like to run in on my motor. It is in excellent shape but I got it in pieces in a box and it seems to be missing parts. Looks like there is only one counterweight and I am missing one screw and insulator that holds the points plate on. I am not near it to get the part number but It is a mechanical advance and I think it says unilife or duallife or doublelife of similar on it. The cap is brand new and so are the wires.

    Is there anywhere to get parts for these new? Or does anyone have a parts unit I can scavenge parts from?

    I need to get the engine fired over the weekend, so I am under a time crunch hard core.

    Cliffy, contact HAMBer GMC Bubba as he is the dizzy guru here. I'm sure that he can help you out.

    What I have is a YC series dizzy. It is part number YC343E.
    I need a weight and some minor stuff. If anyone has one of these for parts, I will buy it ASAP.

    I would not be surprised if most of the upper parts like the weights etc did not interchange with most of the same series Mallory's. The FEs are hard to find but the Chevys are not that hard to find for parts. I used some Mallory Chevy parts in my FE Mallory.

    I think i have a totally gutted FE distrib you could raid the counterweight off of i probably have something like $2 into it

    Not 100% sure, but looks FE, and i'd love to see some of it go to a good home

    I'll send ya paypal if you can make sure the weights will fit the YC343E dizzy I have. Send me a pic to firedome_8@yahoo.com of the weights and I can tell you if they will work or not. I need a couple of other tiny pieces hope you have them!
