It's a pain in the ass, but the end result is definitely worth it. Took 4 hours and used the wiring diagrams from the MOTOR service manual. There are aftermarket electronic systems that use a Magneto-Optical sensor and they are MUCH easier to install and work great..Crane cams markets one such device and so does Allison Ignition products...
: I want to swap the points system in my '73 with the electronic ignition from a 77 car. Has anybody
: done this before? What wires am I going to need to tap into or run from in between the
: module and the cars wiring. I obviously know one goes to the coil and the other to the distibutor
: but is ther a power lead? Looks like theres more than just one or two wires that splice into
: the cars harness. Can anybody tell me how many actually need to be hooked up and what their for.
