Change over to HEI???????

[69 air cab]

If I go from the original dist. and points to HEI what do I need to plan on changing (wiring, etc???)? What specs do I need for the HEI (one wire, etc??)
I would appreciate the help, including if you have the right HEI for sale for my 350.

Check out the FAQ, there's write ups on both inline motors, and v 8. Very easy swap.

Like Longhorn said: No big deal. The first time you do one, go slow and methodically. Repeat the Mantra over and over: 18436572, 18436572. That's the firing order of your engine. Handy thing to know.
Here's another GREAT source of basic info for working on Chevy engines.
