Anyone using one of these coils on their A-body???

I like points, too. If my 75 Ford had come with them, it would have a point distributor in it. Yes, just take the 12V source that goes to the distributor NOW, run it through a ballast and to the coil and then the distributor. I would make sure that 12V source IS a 12V source if you know what I mean.

I'm not understanding completely, I don't think. Why is the "black box" even there anymore if what it controlled is gone?

Thanks, what you've described is kind of what I had in mind, using a 2 prong ballast. I believe the ignition and all runs through it. Problem is, the guy who did all this had a much better understanding of electronics than I do... LOL. which don't take much
