Where to buy parts? Cap/Rotor/Condenser
Can someone please tell me a good place to buy good quality parts for my 70?
I need to buy a distributor cap, rotor, and condenser. Also, I need to buy a tach/dwell meter.
Thanks,
Rich

NAPA, O'Rieleys, or CarQuest and get the Blue Streak brand on points, cap and condenser. May also try your local GM dealer. On the dwell meter, try Ebay. I imagine they are getting harder to find.

Thanks! I agree about AutoZone.
For the dude's who think that all auto parts stores are the same, I am old enough to know better.
Looking for high quality, not cheap crap.

for points and condensor I also go to Napa and buy Echlin
For distributor cap I went to a parts store that sells Delco parts and got an AC Delco black distributor cap... but unfortunately, it was crap. Ordered a high quality cap from Summit, unfortunately it was purple.
My dwell meter and timing light are from Sears. I guess you can order them from somewhere.

o'riellys has borg-warners premium line.as for autozone it is wells which i wouldn't use on a go-kart.but remember most parts are now coming from 2 or 3 major mfg's.so alot of it is the same.just a different label.blue streak is great if you can find it.this is why i use the bw premium.easy to get and a quality part.not to much over the regular line.o'riellys also carrys t-lights and i am pretty sure i saw tach/dwell meter bihind the counter.

Got mine through Summit.
Accel makes a realy nice cap, and they come in black to keep the stock look. Years ago they were only in brown.
I bought this tool through amazon:
