I know about induesed spark,and thanks for pointing it out if some one dose not know. In this case I'm using both better then Ford wire and its on the motor as Ford did it with those black stands,so it will be fine,it worked years ago with not as good wire. This is old factory Ford coil and reistor,so it's not like HEI spark that would jump between ether.
Funny story though,at one time back in the early 1960s,they sold some fanzy sparkplug wire the you could see throgh,with a red tint to it,very pertty,but when it would get hot,spark just jumped every were. Had to take that new stuff off.

Yep, been there, done that. Made a real pretty show idling on a dark night.

I desided to move my plate mount from under the left tailight to centered on the rear. I'm adding a 1928/31 folding luggage rack behind beerkeg gas tank on some temp brackets that will hold in place by two big wingnuts. This is going to be so I can bring along my wifes wheelchair to shows for her to come along. The plate would not be seen as EZ if I left it in it's old spot.
