OK, so Scott with the Accel group's tech support department at (216) 658-6413 gave me the part numbers I needed for my combo...Summit seems to carry them all, Jegs probably would, too. I thought if somebody came upon this thread by way of a search they might be curious about cost.
Ignition Module runs around $100
Power Filter runs around $50
Ballast Resistor runs around $20
Turns out the item I thought was a ballast resistor on my system really
WAS an actual Mallory ballast resistor, the online photo of the item was spot-on.
Looks like for around $170 I can be back on the road...if it works. Once I hear the engine run and not shut off within 20 seconds or so, I'll probably be confident enough to order a spare module and shutter-wheel (performs the function of the points as well as the rotor inside the distributor) to carry in one of the bags in the trunk.
I'll be interested in seeing how it goes in...I know the wires exit the distributor through a very small rubber fitting on the side of the distributor housing....but I haven't looked well enough to find out if the rubber fitting is a permanent item or replaces when the control module gets replaced. I'll reply and let y'all know how it works out.
Again, guys, thanks for all the help! Just like my issue with the brakes, it may take me a while to get confident that I can tackle the project, but once I get there through our discussions I find that the repairs come easier than I thought.
Cheers, all!!
