HEI Conversion Question and Holley 2280 Lingering Issue
You need to run the E-coil and full 12 volts that powers it, they run cool to the touch with the Mopar HEI conversions.
Not the original tower coil and ballast resistor setup.
Simple 2 spade (+) and (-).
Exact same coil used on Ford 1995 F150. Like 20 bucks at Rock Auto.
Handy lead from mopar distributor to male post on E-Coil.
The E-Coils are designed to work with the High Energy Ignition systems.
Way hotter spark. You don't want to mistakenly grab a plug wire when it is fireing.
