Mallory Ignition Parts

[Nova Jed]

Does anyone know what the 28675A coil is used for?

67BobcatGTO I pm you and have a question. Do you have a N.O.S. coil,the year I need is 1969. If so or not do you have the part number. Thank you. Paul

Paul, my coil is around the early 70's. I just found out. I'm not sure if the blue Mallory lettering and white Mallory lettering tells the tale of the year?

Paul - if Mike does not have your coil there are opportunities to buy them at HAMB or ebay in NOS condition. However,there are a lot of vintage "Mallory Coils" out there for multiple applications ranging from standard to rather exotic-for-its-day (built in Capacitive Discharge). There are also external, stand-alone Mallory CD ignitions that work with standard Mallory coils. Lots of choices. Mike can help you get the right one for your application. The HAMB boys are pretty up on these coils too.

In case you missed it, this is the set up that I restored for my Nova (the coil is NOS and needed very little work):

Sam, what is the difference between your distributor and mine?

If your decal/top plate is blue has nothing to do with the year the coil was made.

The red is for 12v negative ground cars-99% of muscle cars and American cars in general. I can't remember exactly but I believe blue is for 12 volt positive ground cars(volkswagons/furren cars??) or something to that affect ..hence it won't work with your car......I can't remember what the blue one was for off hand but but will try to look it up this evening. Hate to give you this bad news.

What is the number of the coil? I will look it up in my mallory books and let you know the application.

Jed - not sure I know if there is a difference. I read Mike's comment on yours. I would be interested to know the range of dates that yours (my) coil were made.

You coil was 66-67 ish to at least the mid 80's. They never changed for th emost part..kinda like the Accel Super coil. The Super Coil made today shape wise is pretty much identical to the ones made in the early 70's other than the decal.

Whitetop, I was talking about the actual color of the words Mallory on the side of the coil. Some are red and blue and others are red and white. I thought that most of the top decals were red for the points negative ground coils?
