Slant 6 Turbo 68Dart Project

That's exactly how I'm feeling now. I'm still only into it $600, but if you notice, none of us really factor in the fittings, going to stores, buying tools you didn't have that you need now... etc. All that little junk adds up. The actual parts - I'm thinking $800 can be done.

One of the things I had not thought about is that right now i use a regular (originally points) distributor with a pertronix fire 1 or something like that - conversion that I did when I first bought the car. It uses a stock coil, and the ballast.

The new dizzy I have is pretty obviously electronic, but I don't know that i can just plug it in the same as the pertronix is? Or am I missing something else in line that drives it? Right now it has two wires that leave the dizzy and go to the coil. I'm assuming the new one those two wires go to the same place. It has a yellow and black wire if I remember correctly with a harness clip that looks similar to the one that connects the parking lights to their circuit.

Inside the dizzy, it has what looks like a water wheel, and a contact that comes close to touching the wheel in 6 points - different from the pickup system on my pertronix setup. I'm also curious how I'll find a rotor for it since i don't know what year it's from, are they all the same?

Do I need an ECU or some other junk?
