John I put a Crane hi-6 unit on the wall in front of the wiper resevoir,
and put the coil on the fire wall right behind the distributer, I'm
curios to see how your's comes out. One problem I'm haveing is the big
coil I have is realy stressing my cap and roter, I have brass ones and
you can hear the spark just buzzing in there. let me know if you get
the same problem. Dan
