I'm having the same issue, I noticed that when I disconnect the ECU module the coil voltage goes back up when in the run position. Mine is the proform conversion with the blue ECU box. I've tried a new coil/resister and I do get some spark, but it's not very strong, at least it's not strong...

hello again, I tried trying a different pump on these brackets (from the /6) but was not compatable, that means a new pump to. Is there a certain style of pump/bracket that is easily available (I think what I have is the saginaw?)? Thanks

Hi Guys, so I've finally got my sb into the 68 dart (former /6, now a V8), and I've got my hands on a magnetic pickup distributor (and a wire hareness for the four connector ballast, is this the v8 one?). I'm wondering, will this just drop in and connect to the exsisting slant six wiring...
