If you can't find a cheap one in a bone yard let me know.


Define cheap. What should I expect to pay? Do have another option to getting one?
thanks

Good question, I have never bought one. I would say $10-$20 would be fair, with cap and wires. Check ebay once in a while too.

If you find a "mom and pop" place, or pick-a-part, you should get the whole thing with duraspark box and wiring harness for about $20-$25

A tip on the duraspark: there is absolutely no way to get one new so a junk yard is the only way with the dizzy and its harness, but they still sell the module and it's like 25$ new and you can keep the other one as a spare cause they're so small... I like having the spare so if you see more than one module at the junk yard grab it.

Auto parts stores have distributors rebuilt for $50 with a $10 core - - - "Good used" is cheaper, though.

I would rather just use a GM HEI module as a spare since it is even smaller. It doesn't "plug and play", you have to make a small adapter harness to make it work.

These guys are good to deal with, and I have been to their shop in Spring, TX cause my family lives nearby. You don't have to win the auction to get it, just call and they will sell you one.

Thanks eyeryone for all your help.
I am blown away by all of you on this site that offer all of this help just to help. The rest of the world could learn something all of you.

I am going to head to the junk yard this weekend and start looking. There is a local yard that specalizes in pre 1980 cars. I plan to start there.
Also does anyone know any thing about Mraley? He has a modefied 250 head and carb for sale that I may be interested in. I'm just cautious about someone I don't know. Sounds like a good deal.

Thanks again,
Dale

He's got dyno results from the car with that head, I believe. Try this topic.

Look up some of his posts to see the level of detail; think he spends first then adds up later.
