No thanks, you can keep the repro's.

There is at least one guy I know of who stamps the original numbers onto the repro blank cases, he may have a use for them? He sells them as new repros with the stamp for around $350.00.

I've done basically the same thing with my 6 pak cars, retrofited with the currently avaliable line of Holley solenoids, that range anywhere from $40-$80,....the "repro" or "reconditioned" factory solenoids offered by various individuals are just plain junk

Still waiting for your detailed explaination Mike

Does anyone have any experience with the Standard Brand ES6 idle solenoid? Do they exhibit the same weak action as the newer replacement?


Curious on the ES6 also, I have a NOS in the box one plus a repro idle solenoid. I don't run a solenoid on my sixpack right now, haven't since I bought my car 16 years ago, rebuilt the carbs about 10 years ago or so, car runs fine, never had run on, ever. But will put one on if and when I redo the car because it's supposed to be there...
