Just bought a magna dizzy from the wreckers yeasterday. Mine looks a little different. It has a 1/4 in thick tab as part of the casting with a slot to adjust timing. (I will get that turned down). The vacume advance is bigger with 2 vacume hose outputs. The guy at the wreckers says it was from a '87 magna. I is in excellent condition with rotor and cap for $45.

Does anyone know what the polarity the wires are. There is a black/white stripe which had a spade connector and also a black with a round lug.

I've bought the Jaycar HEI and also the progammable ignition and am looking to hook them all together.

Regards
