Re: Hotchkis Subframe connectors

I can vouch for him because we just did some business on some Edelbrock valve covers.

I also have a MSD Pro-Billet 8366 distributor for our TBI & TPI cars, the MSD coil, the MSD wires, and the MSD 6AL ignition box with MSD's Plug N Play wiring harness for our cars. Also have the sparkplug wire holders with longer bolts that bolt on top of the valve covers using two of the center bolts in the valve covers for the MSD sparkplug wires for our cars with headers.

I also kind of have an Edelbrock/BBK throttle body for 89+ TPI engine with the progressive cam action throttle lever and a 89+ throttle cable.

What I ain't got is some MFing subframe connectors.

Re: Hotchkis Subframe connectors

Yeah I think so. I got busy with some stuff here toward the end of the week and also forgot my niece had a birthday and used some of my weekend time with the family. I'm going today over to my friend's shop to put a upper door molding I got off a guy here on my friend's IROC-Z. I'll try to swing by my shop afterwards and get the things you were looking for and see if I can find a T-top bag for the guy I got the door molding off of.

Re: Hotchkis Subframe connectors

[QUOTE=Airwolfe;6557781].

Airwolfe,

Honestly not sure if I am interested based on the condition. If the parts were more lightly used, I think I would be more inclined. How about one of used NOS AC-Delco distributors(complete) as a trade?

Re: Hotchkis Subframe connectors

Actually I was thinking the same thing last night about the condition of the MSD Pro Billet Distributor too. I was just about to reply that in good consensus I don't think I want to trade the distributor either. I had no idea it was like that inside until I removed the cap and took the pictures.

I got a whole bunch of brand spanking new NOS GM distributors so I was thinking about some kind of trade with one of those too.

It seems that this is common with MSD distributors. Hell even with the OEM GM distributors they get horrible inside too. I took one off a 27k mile mint condition 1990 Formula 350 that you could have ate off of inside and out, top to bottom and the inside of the distributor looked like it was recovered from the bottom of the ocean right next to the Titanic. It had a huge heaping handful of white fluffy corrosion with green corrosion too and was rusty AF.

It's the poor distributor cap design. It should have been vented. All the ionized gasses get trapped inside and it just murders them in the right environmental conditions.

MSD supposedly updated the parts in newer made distributors than this one is with better materials and coatings and platings. I'm thinking about sending it back for a rebuild if they are still offering that service. They replace everything but the housing it seems at one time with the newer updated parts. But who knows now since Holley owns them.

I'd be up for a trade, We can PM about the details.
