Default Re: Distributor Body Electrodes

I have used both and can see no difference in the way the engine runs . Brass doesn't rust . . The gap between the rotor tip and the cap electrodes is more important . The distance in the gaps can vary in some of the new distributor cap bodies . Ford recommended a conservative gap of twenty five thousands . More gap , to a point will increase the intensity of the spark . I usually set mine at thirty five thousands .
