Distributor upgrade question
My 76 is set up with a point’s style distributor. If I have an electronic distributor that will bolt in, will I have to change anything else out?
-Have 1976 TE31, new distributor is from 3tc 1983.

Re: Distributor upgrade question
You can use the electronic, you need also the ignition module( igniter) and coil for the wiring not a big deal the diagram show how to connect the igniter

Re: Distributor upgrade question
It's a lot easier if you get the electronic dizzy and ignitor out of the same car so you know they match up. That's what I did and it was a 20 minute process to install.
Re: Distributor upgrade question
Hi guys. bump for an old thread. has anyone used an after market distributor? Anything from mallory, accel or any other that is basically drop in. If so share info please...
Re: Distributor upgrade question
A lot of those are dual point which is just double the headache. Stock electronic with upgraded ignition is fine for most people. Set it once and done.
If you do happen to find the electronic ones then you better also stock up on cap and rotors.
