ok so im just starting this and still collecting parts and im on to ignition now. i don;t want to use the computer for anythign which i shouldn;t if i get a new hei distributor but i was wondering what else i will need ignition wise to get this baby to run right. thanks

 

All you need is the distributor. Plug it in, set the timing, and go.


You may want to look into an ignition box though.

 

yeah just a non-computer controlled dizzy... HEI... hook up the wires set the timing...

 

any recommendations on what one to get ?

 

i like the summit $149 ones that have a built in coil and a vacuum can. they have a better ignition module and a higher voltage coil already as well. They also sell a cheaper $89 one that doesn't have those things. Otherwise you could always drop $300+ on a billet MSD dizzy and get the same performance.
