Electronic distributor

All you need to do is take the 2 wires that fed the original points distributor, sperate the, cap them off individually and tape them to the original harness. Then run a 12ga wire from the IGN spade terminal in the fuse block to the HEI distributor BAT terminal on the distributor cap. If you have a tach, it connects to the terminal next to it. Wire spark plugs with #1 cylinder at TDC on the compression stroke, then set your timing to 16 BTDC to start. Hook your vac advance can to manifold vacuum, then set your idle and a/f mixture.
I use one of these connectors, they can be had at any performance parts supplier or possibly your local auto parts store:

I am asking these questions for my husband. Since you have so much knowledge on this car, do you have a number he could contact you at.
