Cecil , do it the easy way . I got a newer style distributor for my 72 c 
10 out of a 79 chevy or newer along with about six inches of the wire 
and plug that goes into it . Take the old one out and drop the new one 
in and splice the power wire for it using the plug pigtail . GM built 
the high energy coil and electronics right into the distributor . I was 
skeptical when I did it , but took out the point type distributor ,that 
had a fresh tuneup with all the innards and dropped in the HEI one . 
Truck fired right up ,and after checking the timing it ran way better . 
I was convinced from that point . Long as its a pre fuel injection 
engine  it will swap perfectly . And the new coil and box inside are 
pretty cheap . I swidhed them shortly aftwards just to make sure it 
wasnt gonna die someplace far from home .  They also make brand new ones 
but they cost a lot more from the performance parts places . A good 4 
barrel will make it purr better , and it makes sweet sounds when you 
open it up .  Ivan
