"I have gotten advice on here

"I have gotten advice on here concerning this motor in times past. Need more. I took the motor to a mechanic who thought he could work on it...but he can't. So far I have purchased new points,distributor cap, and amplifier...,compression is 125-130... mechanic said it is shooting fire out from all around the distributor cap instead of getting to the plugs, he gives up and said come get it I owe him for no labor. Anybody willing to work on it?I'll put it on a truck and ship it to ya."
