One more question to the brain trust... I’m in the process of installing Howell efi along with a computer controlled HEI distributor. This aforementioned computer controlled distributor (HEI) is replacing an old points distributor (that had pertronix installed). I traced a line through the rotor to the edge of the hatch before I pulled the distributor. I have not rotated the engine at all since pulling the original distributor. When I install the new HEI CCD unit, do I just need to insure that the rotor is oriented just like the old one was (in the pics below)? So the question is - if I install the new HEI unit so that the rotor is oriented the same as the original, am I good to go? Or is there some difference with the HEI that I’m not taking into account?http://www.gmcmhphotos.com/photos/member-galleries/p68477-points-distributor.htmlhttp://www.gmcmhphotos.com/photos/member-galleries/p68476-distributors.html

1975 - 26’ Eleganza II Unsure of what upgrades may have been done. I'm working on sorting that out in the coming months. Ken Morefield - Redding, CA
