Modern Points & Condenser - Napa Part #'s Please
 

I have a modern points/condenser plate (Nurex) and wanted to grab a spare set of points and condenser at my local Napa store.
Would someone please share the correct part #s for these?
Thanks!

Upper tier Standard Product Blue Streak points are available from O'Reilly's and others. These are copper plated, have a different (harder?) rubbing block and a felt wiper to lube the cam. The part number is FD8183V. It is on the right, compared to the cheaper points.

Great. Thanks. Any insight on the correct condenser (6V)?

The Blue Streak condenser is FD77. But I did have one of these fail, so....

Great. So an equivalent application might be just as well.
Thanks for the assistance!

I have had good luck with the Blue Steak points and condensor. I consider them top quality.

I use:
Ignition Points: NAPA Echlin ECH CS755

Ignition Condenser: NAPA Echlin ECH FA82. Carry a spare. Easy to change out if needed.

Ignition condensers are not voltage specific (thankfully). They work the same on a 6 volt or a 12 volt car.

For the NuRex plate, when I go to an auto parts store, I tell them I am looking for points and condenser for a 1973 Ford LTD with the 400 CI V-8 engine. That gives them something to punch into their computer and show you the part options to choose from.
