Didn't set the points since they were swapped out with a Pertronix ignition assembly when the HEI dizzy was removed.

Haven't screwed with the timing at all but definitely will look at it.

I was able to find a wiring diagram for the piggy and looks like we're missing all sorts of safety s*** on the alternator/ignition wiring. To get it safe again it looks like we'll need a ballast resistor, voltage regulator and the factory igniter setup. If we're going to run the stock distributor it's the only way we can go.

Not sure about labeling things like a voltage regulator safety s***, but that might just be me...

Thanks for the link on the vacuum lines!

I definitely consider the voltage regulator safety s***, since without it we're getting maximum output from the alternator and in turn frying our unfused alternator wires.

Maybe "safety essentials"?

Ahhhh I see. Yes - safety essentials.

Would hate to see this undead pig get cremated too early.
