I have a 1972 Ford Mustang 351C-4V with the following specs::
- Edelbrock Performer alum. intake;
- Edelbrock 750 cfm with vac. secondaries;
- Pertronix Ignitor II (with adaptive dwell);
- Pertronix Flamethrower II;
- Edelbrock full-flow air cleaner with K&N filter;
- 4-Speed toploard with Hurst shifter;
- 3.25 Taction-loc diff.
Will be:
- Getting headers;
- Better cam
When I was installing the distributor (I recurved the advance), the distributor shaft collar snapped in two. One half of the collar is in the engine and I can't see it down the dizzy hole. Could it (hopefully) have just fallen into the oil pan sump so all I have to do is drop the oil pan? Otherwise, I'd have to remove the timing chain cover, correct?
Also, now that I need to get a new distributor, any suggestions?
