well i am putting a mag-pick up distributor in [ rex ignition is running now] with msd 6al with a little of wiring work -starts Wednesday anybody do this mod yet ? post after work done soon !

well its working the mod ! get a distributor with vacuum advance wire into the system as TBI is now freestanding . disconnect old French system but use as backup system --yellow wire on the 3 wire connector is used for key ignition the msd box and rest wire like ford ignition set up .....ok timing was a pain because ref marks dont line well so i set at app. 6 marks from base of mag timing hole ....next run the jeep up a hill as fast and engine warm to hear any pinging -it sounds better and no flat spots in power ! also i am going to get a 1983 duel vacuum advance for a f-150 300 cid use the retard side for the vacuum to the manifold side - yes this will work for the rest so please look in this mod ...please look at how volvo's 940 are wiring up with the rex/reginea sytem ....thxs for other good ideas to do ....

well i have great success with the MSD mod to the ignition system ! i left the rexis system in place [back up system if things go wrong ]but unpluged from the system [its out time by app. 90* with rexis ].. the main power rexis plug is used for ignition switch ''hot '' for msd box --rebuilt distributor is from a 1983 amc thxs to auto zone with the ford connectors from ford ..gas mileage is at 19 /20 now smoother ideal ......
