van_kool1 Posted February 5, 2014 Report Share Posted February 5, 2014 Hey guys, I've been looking around through a few threads and can't quite seem to find the answer I'm Looking for. What I want to do is convert my points ignition to an electronic one, however, in preparation for a future engine build I'm looking at doing it with MSD gear. What I'm looking at are these; http://www.msdignition.com/Products/Coils/Stock_Replacement/8203_-_Blaster_2_Coil_w/Ballast___Hardware.aspx http://www.msdignition.com/Products/Ignitions/Daily_Driver/6425_-_Digital_6AL_Ignition_Control.aspx http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/toyota-3k-4k-5k-corolla-electronic-distributor-ke10-ke20-ke30-ke55-ke70-ke38-k-/111272845830 The car has a Bosch Distributor and changing the points often is giving me the S@#$&, as the car starts to run rough. Looking through jackbyo's write up (http://www.rollaclub.com/board/topic/46089-how-to-install-an-electronic-distributor/) will the same instructions still apply with the gear I'm looking at? And Is there anything I'm overlooking? Excuse the noobness, I was working on EFI dunnydores before making the switch. Cheers in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
van_kool1 Posted February 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2014 Or would it be easier instead of using the MSD 6AL to just use the Bosch Ignition module with the blaster Coil? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
van_kool1 Posted February 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2014 Its an Auto at the moment but will be converting to manual shortly, if that makes a difference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic_ke10 Posted February 9, 2014 Report Share Posted February 9, 2014 I'm doing similar thing right now on 4k. Msd 6AL to msd blaster2 and electronic dizzy. Installed and wired it up but haven't cranked her over yet. I'm new to this stuff so keen to hear peoples thought and/or experiences.
