Roy,

While the modification on Steve's page is excellent, it doesn't apply
*directly* to Matt's distributor.  Steve's mod is for a Delco-Remy
distributor that predated the Holley which Matt apparently has.  The two
Pertronix kits are completely different between these two distributors.

But for owners of pre-Scout II engines wishing to convert to a Pertronix
ignition, Steve's page is a great resource.

Regards,

John
