and im so excited. the mallory ignition off the gibson-binks boat was waiting at home for me when i arrived from work. a little extra incentive to get things moving with the engine rebuild, but i can only earn so much money at a time unfortunately....

    Does the Mallory distributor have a part number on it? I think I have one in my storage, will have to look for it, and compare. Thanx.

    Thanx, Ken---I just dug mine out, NOT a Hudson. Am checking w/ Mallory as to application. Is for a six-cylinder, tho---
  • i get a feeling the blower was one of the items stripped from the boat when it was nicked. mine is actually model yc 253c. they use all the same contacts and stuff. ive checked out on mallory.com for parts availability

    Half Baked, I dug my other distributor out of the barn, looks exactly like the one in your pic. Found that first one (Mallory) for some 4-cylinder application, not a six. I'm checking w/ Mallory now to get its application. Came from the same place as the Hudson one, would be neat if it turned out to be a four-cyl. Essex!



    Ken--just saw your Post--- Numers are exactly as you stated, Model on mine is ZCM. Don't know if that's a difference or not. THANX!!
  • the numbers refer to the engine application. so if its not a 253 it wont fit a wideblock hudson or the chryslers with the same dizzy set up. i used to know a few more codes than this one but when its not relevant it just slips away...
  • ... another picture to pass some time away...
