mfg Posted April 12, 2020 Report Posted April 12, 2020 '63-'64 Studebaker Avanti ignition shielding wasn't used on 'Lark Type' R3-R4 factory engine installs because of larger diameter spark plug wire used on those models........True?
r1lark Posted April 12, 2020 Report Posted April 12, 2020 False. It was because the Lark had a metal body and did not need the shielding.
brad Posted April 12, 2020 Report Posted April 12, 2020 Actually, they used partial shielding even in the Larks. Basically because they were built @ Paxton mainly for Avantis, and all were built to a standard. No R3 or R4 were built at the Studebaker factory.
