Points on my '66S

MdR · Post by **MdR** » Wed Sep 14, 2005 4:46 pm

I'm looking for the Porsche & Bosch part numbers for the correct 2 part points for my '66S (thinking it thru I could do with the condensor, rotor & cap numbers too)
The points I need are as fitted to the dizzy, the points I've just received are in my fingers.
Help?!

Thanks James.
I also bought my parts from Bert (not the wrong points I hasten to add), but I am after the numbers for information.

I'll get the numbers off the packet later tonight.

Replaced the old coil with a new MSD master blaster last night & the '67 started for the 1st time in my ownership

Thanks
After a good chat with Barry I've just bought an MSD 6A & blaster coil. SWB technology here we come.
Glad your new toy is running now, have you had a chance to sample the delights of a proper 911 yet

Unfortunatly not running on all cylinders ( lots of black smoke & raw fuel being spat out of the exhaust) . Ran out of time last night, but tonight all the plugs & plug wires are getting checked & I should be out in her tomorrow

It was good to hear the flat 6 though

Flat 4 and a 3/4s?

James/Martin, glad to hear you're both going down the MSD route. just make sure that the leads that come from the points, and the two that go to the 'coil' are kept well away from the HT leads. The unit can pick up interferance generated by the big dollops of energy going down conventional, straight run HT leads.

Anyone upgrading their HT leads (MSD say 8mm helically wound, but either helically wound, or earth shielded should be O.K.)

My standard leads were O.K. on a nice dry day, but could be a different matter if I was caught out in wet/humid weather: my standard (brand new) ones were lighting up quite well on MSD as soon as the weather closed in: easily visible at night

Thanks James.
I *think* that's what I have coming to replace the incorrectly supplied ones.
