Best Electronic Ignition Setup for a 273

Bossanova5 said

Hello all,
Doing a slant six to 273 conversion. The 273 I picked up has points. Would like to convert it to electronic ignition.
Would like to use a factory Mopar setup from perhaps a newer 318?
Does anyone know if a 318 electronic ignition and distributor will work on a 273?
If not, what are my other options?
Thanks in advance.

As said above…. All small blocks can swap distributors. The factory stuff is where it’s at. Purchase new stuff, don’t bother raising older used equipment. Go to Manciniracing.com or Summitracing.com

The “Orange box ignition kit” is a simple 4 wire installation. 1 wire to a constant 12v source, 1 wire to the coil, the other two wires with the connector end to the distributor.

Start at 15* initial timing.
