The Wittek Company manufactured the tower clamps used on the Cougar from 1967 to 1973, the Mustang from 1964 1/2 to 1973, as well as many other Ford and Mercury cars during that period. In October or 1993, the company filed for bankruptcy. This has made the tower clamp unavailable to the classic car restorer. Our supplier was able to bid at the auction for enough of the original tooling and parts to make these clamps available again. Other companies have also reproduced these clamps, but...

New Old Stock lower distributor bushing for most V-8 engines 1965 through 1968-69. Ford deemed this bushing as not needed during 1968. That is why all 351W distributors do not have one installed.
