I had a Mallory electronic distributor in our '47, it too did not like any hint of moisture. I sent it back to Mallory and the sent me their "new and improved" distributor... Installation of the "new improved" Mallory required the removal of the stock fan so I had to install an electric one. I'm still not happy with the Mallory and I'm planning on converting back to the stock Ford distributor (after I send it to Bubba) with the crab claw cap.
