Yeah. Take it out and go to Autozone or pretty much any parts place and they will test it for you for free.
It is that simple!

Yes. After you drop the HEI in the motor, run a 12ga. wire from the BATT termnial on the distributor to the fusebox. At the fusebox, hook it into a terminal that is on only when the igniton is in the ON position (i think it says IGN on the terminal, you might want to test until you get the right one). Also, remember to get new plug wires for the HEI-style boot, and run a plug gap around .040-.045. Good luck!

when you install make sure your at TDC and not 180 degrees out, which'll drive you crazy, don't ask me how i know this...
