Re: Coil to HEI swap help
For spark plug wires you can use cut to fit Hei wires or I have heard wires from a 78 Corvette will fit.
I have used the cut to fit Taylor wires in the past.
When you run a new 12 or so gage wire from the unfused connection on the fuse panel put an in-line 30 amp fuse.
Set the spark plug gap at .045.
I have always used stock Hei distributors from '76 or so engines, but many on here have good luck with Skip White distributors off Ebay.
I am sure others will add more information.
