Exclamation getting rid of those damn points

Is there anyway to remove the points and convert it to something else. I am sick and tired of changing those things.....

I have read in my racing beat technical manual that you can use a 81 and up distributer with some minor mods.....???? spent 15 bucks for that technical manual and that is all it says......!!!!

anyway i can get a 82 distributer but what do I need to change that and make it work..

thanks

You can change it easily. Not flaming, but to prevent it from happening you may wanna click the search button before posting. This topic has been covered numerous times. https://www.rx7club.com/search.php

It's a simple mod and will save you a world of headaches. It's the first thing I did to my SA after I bought it.
