I finally tracked down the harness meltdown...the powered lead must have
caught 15000voltsfrom the arcing plug wire...it ended up going into a
relay in the highpower ignition box above the coil.......the relay seems
ok though...

We adjusted the timing after top dead center....and still ge a miss on 
one of the cylinders every now and then...the distriubutor has a little
play in it...bearings must have go hot when the heads blew...
My new cap and rotor get a little uneven wear....

How much is a new distributor...and does anybody have a used one thgqat
is in good order that I can buy....Also is it hard to replave them?
It appears somple but I would value other opinions...
Thanks John in FL.
