79 sa distributor wires
How should these wires be hooked up? Emissions and vacuum nest is completely removed. Vacuum advance is connected to 2 nipples on my Racing Beat manifold that I installed Picture is from a few days ago so that is not pictured yet).
My basic set up, minus the vacuum advance lines I just made.


You can see the 2 black bullet connectors laying loose there between the distributor and the alternator. How are they supposed to be connected?
This piece here is connected to the yellow and yellow with black stripe wires coming from the units on the driver side fender and grounded to the chasis. Should they be connected to those black bullet connectors on the distributor?


Thanks for any help.

i recall i had an unplugged connector on mine too, its like there were 3 condensors and 4 wires.
those condensors should be attached to some thing, there is one by the coils, and a few on the dizzy....

I figured it out. Previous owner told me that the unplugged ones are broken and the ones loose and grounded to the shock tower are the replacements. He just never got around to attaching them to the distributor as they would look from the factory. If that makes sense...
