Wondering were i can look to see how to convert my 69 points to the 1975 electronics package. I picked up a complete Motor Home 1975 440 engine and will swap the entire package into the 69 B Body.  Is it a simple plug and play or is it a rewire?

yes it can be installed...    it will take a bit of rewiring under the hood..  but it will be totally worth it...

i take it that you got the distributer...    the wiring harness from the distributer to the module..

the 4 terminal ballast resistor, its plugs,   the module and its plug with all the harness still attached to the 3 components you got...

if not  ,...    mopar performance used to sell a 30 buck harness for their electronic ignition kit..   long wires without being roasted stiff from decades of heat make it easier to wire in...

and this one on putting electronic ignition in a points distributer.

Thanks, as you presumed I got the entire harness and dist and coil. Nice thing with the MHome 440 it all came together and was bolted to a plate which was bolted to the tranny. Thanks for the help.

oh.. thats an easy install............ good deal... i bet it's got the electronic voltage regulator and alternator wiring also...

there is a little difference in how it hooks up  if it is a 5 pin module. or a 4 pin module..

PM me if you need more of a diagram...   they are available in most repair manuals...

the difference is how the power wires hook up to the ballast resistor ..
