Thank you all for your answers. Jim thank you so much for the detailed specs. That was exactly what I needed to know. Really appreciate it.

Thanks Jim.   I have the assembly manual, and have viewed that A11 diagram.  It is not explicit as the distributor orientation diagram is.  I believe it is quite vague, roughly showing the positive terminal pointing to the firewall where the master cylinder mounts. It also doesn't correlate with the clocking that I see on very original cars such as a 307 Chevelle that I looked at on the weekend that looked to be untouched. It had it clocked further forward, pointing to cylinder #5. THis fairly original looking 396 car also had it pointing at #5.

Sorry if this is a repeat: I tried searching the forums, and looking at pictures, but can't get a real answer:

Does anyone know the original position of the ignition coil on 67-69s? I have seen quite a few with the positive terminal at about 4 o'clock, pointing towards cylinder number 5. Any input would be appreciated.

General Discussion / Firewall Fuse Box Junction Bolt

« on: August 23, 2018, 09:11:03 PM »

I was hoping someone could tell me what bolt holds the electrical plug into the fuse box. It is on the engine side of the firewall, below the master cylinder, in the center of the electrical junction.

AIM says that the bolt is part of the wiring harness. Ricks, Heartbeat City, etc don't seem to list a bolt. I can't seem to get anything to start, and don't want to strip it. 

Thanks.
