[QUOTE=KDADDY79]Mine is a '79 so I never had to do the conversion.
From experience I can say that the MSD brand works so much better than the Mallory HEI.
The ignition module burned out on the Mallory a few times and I had to have it towed once.
The MSD seems to operate much smoother and stands up very well to that C3 heat.
Other brands of HEI are available but I've found what works for me.
Let us know what you do.
