You can. I do it with a points dist, an empty 727 case and starter (just don't quick rev it as the AMC V8 often has the ability to flip itself from torque!)

I have an HEI and am wondering what the simplest way to hook up to hook it up to rain. Can I hook up to a battery with the HEI and crank until it fires? I normally set up the whole solenoid, with MC ECM and fire, but this HEI could make it all so simple! Just wondering while I am traveling in KS... want to fire it up this weekend. Have a great weekend, Jesse _________________________________________________________________ Got Game?
