Anonymous OP Unregistered A	I installed a summit[SUM-850005-1/blue box] distributor in my 1968 440 motor[from a new yorker] 68 coronet.I have adjusted the timing several times and I have a high RPM miss that I did not have with the point distributor.Is it detrimental that I use a 2 field terminal alternator?I am currently using a new single field 55 amp alternator.Can I rebuild this unit to a 2 field or just purchase a new one and get on with my troubleshooting?

Check your grounds, check your battery voltage, check your connections, check your firing order and plug wire routing.
