Hello tom here.... Thought id share some pictures I took while converting the distributor....its pretty damn easy too.

First things first get yourself a good useable mallory dual point distributor... Next order your self a petronix ignitor conversion kit pictures below... About 80 dollhairs



Then select the tools you'll need for the job



Then grab your distributor and inspect it...



Then gently remove all the old dual points crapolla inside... Remember be gentle



Once you have all that shiznit out you can install the petronix igntor and pull the writes through the existing hole



ThenYou get the the supplied cup and press it on







Then get your rotor and press that in, there is a spacer if you need it... I actually don't have the right one but just put it on for reference





Then reinstall the cap and your done



If I can do it anyone can... Hope this helps

Tom
