EI for 59 318?
 

Is there an electronic ignition available for my 59 318 (I think they call it a Y block)??

Thanks!

it is really NOT called a "Y" block. its a poly. ford had a engine called a "Y" early 50s. i think people get the two confused cause both are very wide. the regular electronic ignition by chrysler should work. this is the pt no i think P3690426: 273-340-360. two hints. hint one small block, dist is in the rear, dia shaft rotates clockwise. the tang on the shaft can go in only two ways, 0 degrees ie correct. or 180 degrees out will NOT run. just note where it is pointing when you thake it out. hint two: big block, dist in front, the shaft rotates counterclock wise, the tang on the shaft can go in only two ways, 0 degrees ie correct. or 180 degrees out will NOT run. just note where it is pointing when you thake it out.

Thanks again, Moe! I found a couple on ebay, but also found the Pertronix point-replacing module. Won't that do the same thing (for less $$)?
