lmao im new too the slant 6 world basically cause i didnt want this truck to be junked
The previous owner was in over his head 1982 Dodge 225 when he got the truck it had a mallory hyfire, electronic dist, mallory coil, now i havent torn into it yet but its not getting fire, Now he put a new distributor plugs,wires,fuelpump, redid the exhaust, which he should have diagnosed the problem before ( throwing parts at it) all i have done a visual and an owner at some point took the ballast resistor out , now im wondering if the distributor is even in right , but it is a wiring nightmare under the hood , any ideas , im thinking about ripping all the engine wiring out to start over , What do i need to get this wired up minimal , no extra stuff just to get it drivable

well on the 82 looks like it a leanburn delete in process...do seach for leanburn delete ..will give you the info for proper dist /wiring/parts

keep on roddin'

The simplest and quickest is to install a old points type distributor. You could have it running in about 10 minutes.
However, you might want to trace all the wires out and make yourself a diagram of what you have. That way you can compare it to a stock diagram and decide if you want to install an HEI. Who knows the Mallory box could be dead.
My son bought a Mallory red box a few years ago. It ran for about 3 months and something cooked inside.
He is sticking with his Crane setup.

also looks like airpump is missing

thats the thing i dont know how many hands Have been into her , So thats why i just want too take it all out , it had a lean burn taken out , but there are too many wires under the hood , running one color too another , just a stupid beginner mistake , i want too get it running with whats already there. i know it will , its just not getting spark, and im afraid its in the rats nest, which needs cleaned up anyway
