Forget Repco and Supacheap....they will try to sell you silicon Resistor cables which are "death" to a 6V system with less than 10kv of ignition voltage. You should use wire ignition leads...same as dragsters use.. Go onto the Rare Spares website and you will find the cotton covered wire cable for early Holdens ( same as Packard in the 30's and 40's). Your cabling in 51 would have been non fabric nylon covered copper wire. They don't sell that in OZ anymore...it's all stainless wire. Ferrules for spark and distributor are available for DIY cable mutilation from the Rare Spares website. Good luck...PT
