Hi folks - my stock distributor is in need of replacement (exposed wires under cap). Thought I'd do an HEI upgrade - looks real easy. Anybody find a Cal Emmissions legal HEI for the I6? Or do you guys simply swap back the stock when it comes time to smog? :confused:

I did a TFI upgrade. Use the stock dist. base but you go to a bigger dist cap, and an after market coil. Next I want to in stall my MSD box.

I bought the parts new at Kragen Borg warner stuff,
Cap #c193
Cap adapter #C193A
Coil #E92
plug wires #86171

Heres a link to help,

This helped with the stumbling the 258 carb has, (doesn't prevent) Better spark.

OH NO! ANOTHER Chris eL! :P

There is a company called Davis Unified Ignition that makes a GM HEI ingnition for almost all motors out there. They make one for AMC 6 & 8 cylinder motors. They are all CARB exempt.
