put an hei distirbutor in a points style engine
i am stripping down my firebird,long story short my neighbor has a 57 chevy with a 70s style 327 in it,,how hard would it be to wire my hei distirbutor up in his car,that now has the old points type distributor,the hei distributor has the 4 prong plug on it,also it has an accel super coil in place of the stock coil,thats not to much spark for the old 327 is it? thanks in advance for the help.
Piece-o-cake. He'll need to get rid of the ballast resistor from the wiring on the old points system, then it is a simple wire splicing job. here is a site that does a step by step. http://www.oldengine.org/unfaq/hei.htm
