Ignition system swap
 
Is it possible to swap a newer electronic ignition system from like 86 or 87 into a 76 or does anyone have a coil power supply. Does anyone know what would keep a coil from getting power. There is no spark which leaves us without car...

Try this place, www.performencedistributors.com , they sell GM HEI distributors for toyota trucks. all you need is a single 12 volt wire to run this ignition system.

you could always use an MSD system to bypass the toyota igniter

I don't think that is entirely correct...I have been looking to do just that and all of my research has led to the conclusion that you must retain the stock igniter in circuit with any MSD product...correct me if I am wrong, that would be great.

i got it running it just had a direct short to the distributor housing. the guy that put the new points in took off the nylon bushing and forgot to put it back on so the truck wouldn't start problem solved anyone want to buy it?
