Ok I need help with my Langdon HEI. I followed all of the steps in the instruction page and I cant get any spark at the plugs. The engine is a 1954 235. New plugs, new F**d 300 plug wires, and of course the Langdon HEI distributor and coil. There is power on both sides of the coil, but as far as I can tell thats were it ends. So anyone who can help would be greatly appreciated.

I can't help you. I suggest contacting Langdon. I'm going to use a distributor from an 80's 250 Chevy in my 235 as soon as I can find one at the bone yard.

Sounds like the same problem mine picked up after a few weeks of running the HEI. Might be a module or pick-up. I reinstalled the points dizzy in mine. At least if points burn, you can still limp home. When an electronic module goes, that's all she wrote. Keep us posted on what you find out.

If you bought it from Langdon, suggest you give him a call. Tom's a reasonable chap.
