Correct lenght of rotor after Pertronix install?
Hi, I wanted to know what should be the correct lenght for the rotor after installing the Pertronix?. I did grind mine a lot when I installed it following the instructions that were posted in the SDP site, but yesterday my truck died and found out it was the rotor that ate the whole center carbon piece of the distributor cap. So I have to replace it but want to be 100% of the correct lenght before grinding it more.

Conceptually, you want to remove the minimum amount of material to insure the rotor is fully seated on the shaft. We will use a bench grinder or sander to remove down just enough to we have a minimal airgap between the magnetic ring and bottom of rotor. I have never seen a case where more than 1/8 had to be removed from a Bosch rotor.
