                I'm sure that this has been answered before, but can you run the later 57+ distributor on a 6v positive ground system? I got a B manifold and distributor and carb for a deal. Wondered if it'd be ok to use on my 55 that's still 6v? I'm thinking about doing a set of Spotlite's headers on it when I get the exhaust redone so figured that 57+ stuff would help make a little more power on top of that.

                Sure you can run the distributor on six volts.  No problem.

                Awesome. I just was unsure if the 6v coil would be hot enough for it. thanks bud

                I believe the 6 volt outfits don't use the ballast resistor........true?
