Re: Electronic Constant Voltage Regulator

I have also have a '63 Sport Fury 383. First thing I always do is replace the dual point distributor with a Chrysler electronic ignition. The current ignition has the orange box, I also replaced the old voltage regulator with an electronic one I got from Glendora Dodge. It's at MOPAR part. I don't know if they do mail order but it's worth a phone call at 909-667-2683. If you live in Southern California you can see them at one of the MOPAR shows.

Subject: Electronic Constant Voltage Regulator

Hi Guys,

I have a Mopar Performance Electronic Ignition conversion on my '63 Sport Fury 383 with a mechanical voltage regulator.

I am being told I need an electronic, "constant voltage" voltage regulator. When I look at places like Mancini, they show these, but they all say "for race only applications."

Two questions:

1) What is it about these regulators that makes them good for only race applications?

2) What is everybody else using?

I've had trouble with my "orange" box, and I'm wondering if the voltage regulator is the problem, but I don't want to go from bad to worse.

I look forward to your thoughts.

Lyle
