HEI conversion.

[493 Mike]

I do not recall anyone posting photos of the HEI conversion so, I just finished one today:
I use Ford truck coils for the spark generator, Rock Auto has Standard brand for under $10.00. I buy the connector pigtails also.

I had an incorrect diagram attached here and I changed it out. Corrected on 2/17/24.

Where did you get the heat sink/bracket that mounts it to the bottom of distributor?

I was just thinking that I should have done that!

Thanks Mike.

Looks good. I mounted mine to the fender so it easily changed if it goes out. So far, it’s been great.

One thing to beware of. Keep the p/up wires way from HT leads AND the coil neg wire. Close proximity can cause false triggering.
P/up wires can be any length, twist together.

For those of us that don't know, what is HT ?

Thanks for the tip.

HT= High Tension leads. The spark plug leads & coil-to-dist-cap lead.

Thanks for the info Mike. Made copies to put in my Mopar info stash.
