Lil Red Resurected From Dead

I want to wire up an electronic dizzy to my 79 to rid myself of these points. I know what has to be done but am more of a visual guy I looked for a write up in the archives but couldnt find anything. Maybe someone has pics of one of their cars with this dine maybe not maybe I can get a nice little write up of how its done going. Either way I have an fb distributer and want to replace the 79 points style distributer with this one. What do I do?

I wish I had documented it when I did it a few years ago. It's not difficult, but I know what you mean about being visual. I did mine from this tutorial:

Good luck!

I just did it as well. it's very simple if you follow the mazspeed tutorial. The hardest part for me was reinstalling the distributor, I messed it up and the car wouldn't start. Make sure you line up the timing mark on the dizzy gear with the dizzy shaft when you reinstall.

I can try to get some pics for you, but I pretty much buttoned up and hid all the new wiring so you can't really tell what's going on anymore.

ive also done it in the past...the easiest way would be to look at a early model RX with a swap.its pretty much to same way....
