Default In need of

Does anyone have a distributor with electronic ignition for 1991 chevy 5.7 (350).

My starter relay shorted out and fried the electronic ignition.

I'd like to get the entire distributor if anyone has one.

Thanks

Spare: No it's a Prestolite but I understand AC delco has a conversion kit that comes with the distributor, elect ign and coil, which I think it is the est kit I'm talking about. I did find out that the same electronic ign in my prestolite now fits a ford also.
If you can get me the EST set up I'll buy it from you instead of looking around.

If the springs in mine break you can't replace them. No one makes them anymore.

This distributor and it's internal parts are becoming obsolete.

Reel: is that how your wife woooed you:: with mechanical talk???

Mike: I'm not trying to convert mine from points to elect ign or after today replace the elect ign in mine. I'm looking for a complete marine distributor replacement for my prestolite system which no one makes any replacement parts for.

As far as I know Advance doesn't sell a marine distributor, the difference between the two are: Marine has a vent that lets gas fumes escape so you don't blow the cap off. This happens more with a carb motor like mine. The timing advance for marine is different than a car.

Marine Power and Pertronix each make a complete replacement system.

Can you see what price you can get on the pertronix and the AC Delco EST.
