Convert HEI to e-HEI

Some publications seem to think the in-cap coil HEI is a better unit than the small cap HEI. Can an older non-electronic HEI be converted for use with TPI? If so, what are the mods?

You can put an older style HEI (coil in the cap) into a TPI motor. Vettes used to come this way. You just need the smaller Plenum extention. Wiring it I'm not sure about.
