Dan Posted February 19, 2004 Report Share Posted February 19, 2004 I see two kinds of distributor caps on the market, one with aluminum contacts, the other with brass contacts, which is better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rek Posted February 19, 2004 Report Share Posted February 19, 2004 Accell has brass (Hi-Po ??) The higher dollar Echlin (NAPA) has brass. Brass screws and lugs are used more than aluminum (if used at all). I'd say brass was better, but it's just a guess. rek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lacseville Posted April 13, 2004 Report Share Posted April 13, 2004 FYI when wiring a house or industrial building, we always use copper. aluminum is cheap and not as conductive, and has poor heat disipation qualities... it's more likely to burn up. but that's industrial type wiring, but i'm sure same principles apply.
