Re: Mallory Distributors

John,

I measured the Prestolite shaft and the dia is "0.4834 inches".  The 
Prestolite shaft is constant diameter.

My mallory had a step in it.  Started out the same as the Prestolite but 
went up to 0.500 I believe.  Anyway it was the wrong configuration on the 
length and the distance that the blade was carried up the shaft.  This 
last is what Mallory worked on the last time.  Works fine now!

Glad to hear that Mallory is still running.  The SuperShops debacle was 
mentioned to me by Dave Forbes @ Mallory.  He was hoping it didn't kill 
Mallory, so there must have been some tie.  Owned by the same parent 
perhaps. 

I also have another dist.  Bought it as a backup in case the Mallory 
didn't work.  I don't know the manufacturer, but the casting doesn't look 
like the Prestolite.  I can investigate and see what it is and what the 
shaft dia is.  The gear is still on it.

Steve
