MANY different types of ignitions have been subjected to the test of tests by being adapted or converted to the engines of hot rods. Of all these, the Lincoln Zephyr 12-cylinder distributor converted for use on
a VS has proven itself to be one of the most outstanding and trouble-free conversions found in all-around competition today. As different as the various types of distributors themselves are the conversions applied to the Zephyr distributor. Taking the “finer” points from these various types, we come up with a durable and compact racing type ignition. All operations are well within the average craftsman’s ability. The special parts necessary in the following conversion are also found in the local merchants’ parts
houses. All stock components like the distributors themselves may be found in local Lincoln and Mercury or Ford Agencies. Starting with the tun,e-up men and mechanics at these agencies and finishing at the
local junkyard, more than enough parts can be accumulated to suffice.
