The Ford Barn

I have searched the archives for the part number for the magneto points part numbers to convert an LZ to ford to a dual coil , what is the number for the points , the last ones I bought were from air spruce I remember they offered two types one set with a spring and one without the spring
can someone tell me what the correct part numbers are and do I need the ones with the spring or without, It's been too long ago thanks .

Do you have a picture of the old ones?. Look for a part no. On the points base.

Harmon Collins uses the same points as well.... I do have a couple pairs in stock if ya cant get them. $125 per set.....(1 pair )

I also have the orginal Car Craft articles with complete direction for making the LZ into this distributor... Car Craft April, May and June 1954..

Thanks Jim,
I will no doubt need your services, do you know who I may get to grind the shaft and remove the perspective lobes that are called for to be removed ? your price on the points reasonable to me, which ford dist. is the best one to use to have a good curve?
I was considering maybe setting the dist. shaft/lobe assembly in my lathe and maybe using a degree wheel to grind off the un needed lobes using my DU-More tool post grinder to remove the lobes not needed. But I would rather have someone more experienced do them, anyone here on the barn have any one that can handle the grinding?
Thanks
