    Is an odd fire dist cap different?

    Pertronix also needs 12v, original wire to distributor has resistance that reduces the voltage. I learned the hard way! I hooked up that and the fuel pump to that wire and it ran poorly. 1999 I needed a lesson.

    Is an odd fire dist cap different?

    The Odd Fire was designed like the 300 V8 without 2 cylinders - the flat spots on the lobe are where those missing cylinder's lobes would have been. Getting the timing right would be really hard if not clocked correctly.

    Swapping 300 for 350

    Of all the swaps this one is one of the easier ones. I did this on a 65 Skylark IIRC the pulleys and brackets from the 300 will bolt straight on, wire harness will also work.

    66 Wildcat Power Steering Pulley

    I will try to check my pulleys - I should have one- and I cannot think why it would differ from the 65. I've got a couple 66 engines in 65 model cars. Here is one that came to me with a 425 Q-Jet engine :)

    '67 LeSabre Coupe interior rear view mirror / factory trunk mat

    This is a convertible but will give you an idea of what it looks like. Houndstooth vinyl. My 67 Wildcat coupe has this same style. Cheers

    There was a GS club member named Larry Miller in NC that was the 67 guru. He had a collection that included one of the 9 3-sp convertibles. I still am striving to be like him with 65 WIldcats-one of each please!
