Here it is..., no comment on the windings.
1 have a 1963 Buick Skylark with the all Aluminum 215 V8, i have a few Questions, 1: can anybody show me a picture of the rotor position when the motor is at top dead center of the Number one cylinder with the timing mark set at 0 degrees on the timing tab? and can someone provide me with the proper spark plug wire routeing? i would be most grateful. 2: i am rebuilding the original Delco Remy starter,can anybody tell me what i can use for the armature windings, other than Gylptal, A.K.A electrical lacquer,cause mine is crusty and crumbling! please help! Many Thanks Kens63

Here are some pages from the shop manual dealing with spark plug wiring.

Thank you so very much, this should help me plenty, going to have to find a source for the Electrical insulating varnish though, know about Glyptal,but i have had a hard time finding it locally.could you perhaps suggest a source or brand name? Thanks for your help once again! Kens 63
I usually either buy it from EBAY, Click Here for Glyptal
or Eastwood.
A few bucks cheaper on EBAY when you consider freight.

There is a Sprayon brand of insulating varnish available in 15 oz. spray cans in red, green or clear. It can be ordered from Wal-mart online (not available in stores). Grainger also carries the Sprayon varnish.
Glyptal 1202 would be suitable for brushing and comes in small cans.
You will want to look for varnish rather than enamel or paint. Air drying varnish would be more convenient than baking varnish unless you have a dedicated oven available to bake in.
Some varnishes may be hard to find in small quantites as the typical buyer would be motor shops who buy in large quantities. Spray cans would have longer shelf life than quart cans.
It would be good to dry out the armature with heat prior to reinsulating. Maybe leave it out in the sun or under a heat lamp for a few hours. Be sure to mask off the bearing fits and commutator face to prevent unwanted varnish build up. After applying varnish, dry the armature in a vertical position with the commutator up to prevent uneven buildup.
