I think you are correct. Something tells me that scene will find its way into a commercial. Takes a licking and comes up ticking. My 84 had an oil pressure switch by distributor that completed circuit for fuel pump. Wow! That's 30 years ago.

My fleet of 1997-98 Vortec 350 L31 trucks are some of the last distributer equipped vehicles, 2002-2003 vans were the last. These L31 engines use teh same high voltage coils that the LT1/LT4;'s use, and they eat distributer caps/rotors. I change them every year and actually notice seat of the pants power improvements. Such a high voltage cannabalizes the contact points. Its one of the reasons that GM went with CNP in 1997 in the LS1. The 1st BBC to go CNP was the 1998 L21 which is pretty much a Vortec 454 but with CNP(Coil Near Plugs) and ETC(electronic Throttle control) then for MY2000 the L18 8.1 496 GEN 7 BBC came about. IIRC there is an oil pressure/fuel pump switch on the drivers side of the block on the 1996-1999 GMT 400(88-98) GM trucks.

Re: Corvette Museum
Hog,
I used MSD components. Had a MSD 6A along w MSD HEI coil w Accel module. Had good success w that. Drilled holes in cap to relieve ionization.

Re: Corvette Museum
Anyone have a live feed for the camera that actually shows the mancage at work? I am only able to get the other camera that shows the red pillar that blocks the actual view of the work.
thanks

Re: Corvette Museum
Well they just pulled the millionth Vette out. Said they had the opportunity so they went ahead and got it. Only one pic on the page you really can't tell what shape its in...
