I am going to convert my 46 Mercury pickup to 12 volts. It has the stock flathead V-8 with a crab type distributor. I have been looking on the net for conversions to eliminate the points and go with electronic, like the Pertronix units. Not many options. 49-53 distributors are common, but not the earlier ones. Speedway has a Mallory distributor but won't clear the stock fan. There is a fellow on the HAMB who markets rebuilds, but with shipping gets pricey. Anyone have suggestions or know of a kit that will work? May have to go with the HAMB one or stay with points.....
