Glad you got it figured out.

Hey, ya' don't have to make a long trip for a condenser. I'm using one for a '70 MG (MGB) from NAPA. Really quality part. The nearest RE dealer for me is 150 miles away and when 'ya gotta ride you gotta ride! ;D

HA! Yep!  SAME HERE!! Chevy straight six points and condenser. Used to use Blue Streak but they don't make them in America anymore. >:
 I Changed the Points and Condenser on the RE to use ones for a early 70's MG. and run NGK B8ES plugs.
 Oh, slip a piece of thin silicon tubing over the bottom dist. cap stud. I saw a small arc/spark jump to it from my points wire 'cause they are pretty close.
 Thanks all for the dist wire problem plug. Guess I'll pull mine out and replace with one without the plug. I'm trying to make my Bullet "bullet proof" :D
