Where is a good place to buy electrical parts? I have heard it is better to buy nos rather than new Chinese parts. This is for a 426 Chrysler. Thank you.

Mike murley is who I buy pretty much all vintage Chrysler from. Even if he doesn't have what you need he is a WEALTH of knowledge. http://dolphinmarineengineco.com/
Picked this up this 47 resorter this week. Can anyone recommend a parts source for the engine? Or a mechanic to rebuild it?

There are probably places that are a lot closer to where you live, but Algonac Michigan is always an excellent source for parts and contacts on old boats. It was the original home of Chris Craft and there are lots of shops and connections to that still in the area. You may want to try reaching out to Brian Cuthbertson at Cuthbertson Marine 810-794-2146 or Mike Murley of Murley's Marine 586-725-7446. They are usually the first names to come up from an engines perspective in these parts and both have a very good reputation for the work they do.
