kenb Posted August 27, 2012 Posted August 27, 2012 My eyes are shot. I can't seem to drill out a dtributor anymore for wiring. Who makes the most realistic prewired ditributors. I remember a website that had fantastic looking ones, but for the life of me I can't find it. Google searched and I find everything but this one. Thanks, Ken
High octane Posted August 27, 2012 Posted August 27, 2012 Yes I like the M.A.D. products and have a few in stock for future builds.
Foxer Posted August 27, 2012 Posted August 27, 2012 Kris's are really nice. I also like Replicas and Miniatures that have nice rounded side detail. They don't have great photos of their products so I took some quick shots .. Kris Morgan distributor note material to make wire boots also included, Replicas and Miniatures distributor and also a separate vacume advance they have available
cobraman Posted August 27, 2012 Posted August 27, 2012 Funny that the M.A.D. product be mentioned as I am using one in my current build of a Mustang gasser. The cap is prewired and comes in 6 cap colors and 9 different colors. You can also get them in 4-6- or 8 conifguration. The detail is very good . What I don't understand with the one I have now is that it comes with a piece of wire to use as boot material. Others I have used come with tubing. So how do it use wire for boot material ? I will try and slice off some of the insulation off the wire and see if I can pull the wire out to create some tubing.
Casey Posted August 27, 2012 Posted August 27, 2012 Replicas and Miniatures distributor and also a separate vacuum advance they have available: ^^^ This is the one you want. It has great detail, including the "towers" which are almost always missing from others' distributors.

Some modelers even save the wire to aid in detailing. Kris Morgan Morgan Automotive Detail
george 53 Posted August 28, 2012 Posted August 28, 2012 Kris's Dizzy's are PRE wired, and save you ALL the hassle! I personally recommend them,very highly!
JamesW Posted August 28, 2012 Posted August 28, 2012 I've been using Preston's. While they're not very detailed, they work good for me.
crazyjim Posted August 28, 2012 Posted August 28, 2012 You need to see Fatkidd's 2nd generation distributors. Maybe he'll get a pic up here.
JamesW Posted August 28, 2012 Posted August 28, 2012 Do they have a link? He doesn't have a website, I get them on Ebay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/251133526967?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2648 Years ago, (circa 2003) when I first discovered them, these were going for $19.99 shipped. My have times changed.
fatkidd Posted August 28, 2012 Posted August 28, 2012 (edited) You need to see Fatkidd's 2nd generation distributors. Maybe he'll get a pic up here. Ok...here's 2 pictures of the ones that I make. I just started making this style a month or so ago and haven't "branched out" with them too much. I did sell some of them to a local hobby shop, though. The plug boots are precut and already placed on the wire. The first picture is of one of the distributors, by itself. The "wiggly" one is the coil wire. I don't don that on all of them, but this one is for me. The second picture is one the distributors in an engine and wired up. Edited August 28, 2012 by fatkidd
MsDano85gt Posted September 2, 2012 Posted September 2, 2012 -I personally get a larger bit and drill out the. Center of my dizzy, I then add my 9 wires, or 7, or 5 depending on cylander config. Set my wires down in the hole with glue and let it dry, wala. Pre wired dizzy!

I've used several MADD distributors and really like them , but have never been able to get the insulation over the plug wires ! Maybe it's me .
