can I use this coil as is?
I will be going HEI one day, But for now, I am pretty happy with my electronic ignition. How do you convert to HEI?
There are a few different ways to convert to HEI.
My kits are BY FAR the easiest way to do it though.

The price for abody members is still 99.95
I was happy with my factory electronic also, till I ran the HEI.
Better starting, smoother idle, more power, and better MPG to boot.
Best of all, no more ballast resistor and no more intake mounted coil or box on the fender.
Most peole who have them say that they are one of the best improvements they have made to thier car.
Basically you are changing the box on the fender for a small unit that controls the spark, and a somewhat higher powered coil that ignites the fuel more efficiently.
