look for the small braded wire coming out of the fusebox under the hood and that is the resistor wire.
here is a diagram
take the wires off the + and - side of the coil, pull the coil wire out of the coil, unbolt the coil from the manifold, to install just reverse directions.
REMOVAL PROCEDURE Remove the engine cover. Disconnect the spark plug wires at the ignition coils. Disconnect the ignition coil harness connector. Remove the ignition coil mounting bolts. Remove the ignition coil. INSTALLATION PROCEDURE Install the ignition coil to the bracket. Install the ignition coil mounting bolts. NOTE: Refer to Fastener Notice in Service Precautions. Tighten Tighten the ignition coil mounting bolts to 8 N.m (71 lb in) . Connect the ignition coil harness connector. Connect the spark plug wires at the ignition coils. Install the engine cover.
To locate ignition coil (IC): open hood, to left side of engine there are 3 IC's bolted to cylinder head; they have spark plug wires attached to them (6 wires between all 3 IC's). You can unbolt and swap problem coil with basic set of hand tools, just unbolt install rubber seal new coil comes with and install new IC.
yes.
no, Camaros use a leaf spring rear suspension while Chevelles use a coil spring rear suspension. The overall width is also different.
A coil of wires wrapped around a core is an electromagnet.
Get a shop manual. There is no distributor. These have coil packs.
im assuming your looking for hot wires on the coil. They should be two wires of the coil
There are 2 coil packs, one on each side of the engine toward the front. Look for the spark plug wires and what they plug into at the front of the engine is the coil pack. Remove wires making note of which goes where; remove wire harness; remove screws holding old pack in place. Reverse order of removal to install new pack.
Any '74-'80 Chevy HEI distributor will work. The biggest thing you have to do to add HEI is to run a larger positive lead to the coil. The small gauge wire running to your stock coil isn't large enough to carry the proper amount of voltage for the HEI coil.
