What wires do I use to feed power to the HEI?
Do I join the wires together that run to the points coil? I know I'd have to replace the resistance wire with a non resisitor type? Anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks!

Connect the hot lead from the ignition switch to the power terminal on the HEI Cap. I think it's the outer front terminal (but you better double check). that is the only one you need to connect unless you have a Tach - then you will need to hook that wire to the TACH terminal on the cap. Make sure you have a good ground on the block and the body to ensure the module will last.

Do you know what color the wire is I need to replace/use to power the HEI or what spade on the ign switch it is?
Thanks!

I do not know the color.
It is the hot lead from the ignition switch to the coil (not the one from the coil to the dist).
