Default Why not use a radiator flush compound???

..... it is messy...... and caustic......

Or maybe a mild acid solution to dissolve the rust scale overnight???? best done on open (dirt) ground......

Let us know how you Pertronix works...... are you planning to use the matching HD coil at 40K volts??? if so your sparkplug wires may not properly handle it and short out inside the tubes........ with the full coil/Pert. set up you almost need modern high capacity wire......

...and remember no solid core wire...... not recommended by Pertronix.....

Once completed it will run almost as good as a Chev........
