There would be a steel resistance wire or some sort of ballast resistor to limit incoming voltage from the key to the hot side of the coil. That would need to be eliminated when switching to HEI. Also, HEI requires minimum 8MM spark plug wires. Then just switch distributors or install the HEI module in the original distributor, and you're good to go.
No summit will sale you a kit
Need to know what year the vehicle is and is it still a points car or is it electronic ignition.
well you first need to tell someone is it electronic ignition or dose it have points ??
Hate to answer a Q with a Q but WHOSE timing? Valve, cam, ignition? Need to be more specific. If I ASSUME ignition timing then it still requires more info as the type e.g. breaker points or electronic? Clarify the Q and answers can be rendered.
To convert a Chevy 230 engine from points ignition to an electronic distributor, you'll need to replace the existing points and condenser with a compatible electronic ignition system. This typically involves installing an electronic distributor designed for the 230 engine, which may require rewiring to accommodate the new system. Ensure that the ignition coil is also compatible with the electronic setup. Finally, properly set the timing according to the specifications for the new distributor to ensure optimal engine performance.
You can use the same flywheel but need to put in a complete solid state ignition set up. http://store.chainsawr.com/
Yes, an electronic ignition from a Datsun 280Z can fit a Datsun 240Z, but modifications may be necessary. The 240Z originally used a points-based ignition system, while the 280Z features an electronic ignition system. To install the 280Z ignition, you may need to adapt wiring and possibly use different components to ensure compatibility. It's advisable to consult specific installation guides or forums for detailed instructions.
If you havent already got one you will need to put an electronic ignition box on the truck. They're pretty easy to install.
The ignition switch should be separate from the ignition key/lock assembly, so I'll say no.
Constant voltage delivery Eliminate the need for periodic replacement of points and condensor

i need the bracket that the ignition cylinder slides into.... the piece that mounts to the stering column
