Re: Distributor?

Since it dies and won't restart, check to make sure you have 12vdc to the HEI when ignition key is on and check for spark and/or broken wire as mentioned above.

Other things to do is to make sure that all end connections are in good shape. Make sure the battery cable end connections are good and that the original resistor wire for the points distributor has been replaced with a non resistor straight 12VDC wire.
