If it's the Pertronix II unit I think it is totally contained within the distributor. The plugs don't have to be regapped if you are using your stock coil. Good luck with it. I have a Pertronix unit but I haven't installed it yet.
Yeah, I had to file a notch in the cap to avoid pinching the wire that
comes out. I put it back in the same (rotor) position and the timing was
unchanged!
I bought the epoxy coil and got a 1.3ohm resistor, but thje stock coil
should be fine, until you rev it past 5000 rpm. But oh, you'll likely
have other problems before spark gives out :-)
