Hitachi to Nippondenso Disty conversion.


Recommended Posts

Perusing the selection of Subis at a local junkyard I noticed that all of the remaining distys were Nippondenso units. That got me to wondering how easy it is to switch from a Hitachi to a Nippondenso.

 

One obvious issue is that there is some sort of external ignitor unit that mounts on top of the ignition coil above the wheel well. If I pull this unit and the disty and use them both to replace my Hitachi will I have a working engine?

 

Has anyone done this? How did it go?
