    It's an MSD cap (molded in red). I did paint the box red though...

    Those are Autolite 8.5mm wires. I believe they came from one of the typical auto parts stores (like Checker, AutoZone, or NAPA).

    They are not as good as MSD or Taylor wires, but I'll get some of those later...

    The pics were taken before I reinstalled the tower braces. They look pretty good too. I'll post pics of them later. I also have not reinstalled the "Monte Carlo" bar yet either...
