Found an old non inductive timing light but am missing the spring like connector used to connect the light to the spark plug. One end attaches to the spark plug and the other to the spark plug boot. Any ideas where I might find one? Online search was not successful. Thanks. Ed

Just use a regular spark plug wire with the distributor end insulator boot cut off . No need for a springy thingy!

Ed, Jerry's solution is probably the best for what you need.  Just for further edumacation, check out this link from another automotive site that some folks provided some alternative solutions: Spring Thingy replacement solutions [ chevelles.com] Interested to see/know what you decided to use and how it worked???
