Re: Help clarify harness adaptation existing HEI to OE points

Just got back from Napa with the coil. Shocked that one was in stock and grateful to have but will work real hard to discover one that is not made in the PRC. The parts guy says Echlin has a version of IC14 (no SB) that might not be PRC made but unsure whether or not it needs external resistance.

Happy to report the cap is US made and uses brass not aluminum. The gasket is US made.

Advanced Distributors in Shakopee, MN is rebuilding the points distributor that’s original to the engine. I’ll ask the owner what he recommends for points and rotor.

Good thread guys, I’ve learned a lot so far.
