I also replaced the electronic ingition on a Chrysler 318 last summer. It
was still working fine but didn't look good - epoxy insulation melting away,
no reason apparent, not happening on new replacement.

My marine mechanic knew what to sell me without skipping a beat.

I'd like to replace the distributors and the electronic ignition
"breadboxes" on each of my Chrysler M360s with distributors that have
all


Can anyone who's done this replacement tell me what product they used?
Does
rotation matter?

Dave.... I replaced the breadboxes on my two Chrysler 318s a few years
ago.
I replaced one distributor entirely, because the internals were badly
corroded. On the other I just installed the e-i plate and reluctor assy
to
replace the rotor-points, etc. I'm embarrassed to say I can't recall the
brand, but I do recall that there was no difficulty finding an appropriate
aftermarket source through my local marine shop. Has run fine. As I
recall, rotation does matter.
