Thanks Ken, I think I just found the same answer in the same place, something I can use ...

Now to make some orders for parts ...

I've done more digging and that distributor has the 8-pin module. I believe I would need to add a MSII to my V2.2 MS1 and use MS2-Extra!

I guess I can give up on the dizzy I have (4-pin module with vac adv) and just move on. Kinda wished I could do the fuel without the ignition, but I'm missing how ...

Rolled by O'Reilly today and looked at a couple distributors. The one I looked at was from a early 1990's Chevy truck with a V8 and the distributor had two wire sockets, one with 4 pins and one with 2 pins. Pic below.

Anyone know where to find information about this distributor and the module? Is ...

I went back over the build docs and my MS1 and I have the XG1-XG2 jumper in and the resisters are correct for my GM/Delco coolant sender model. Anyway, I'm not worried about the sender, I have a spare and this one might be bad. Looks like my MS1 is stock as per the build doc right out of the box.

Are you using the white wire from the cap? I have run both 4&7 pin using the HEI tach output (without any mods) feeding a relay board and never had any issues like incorrect RPM. How is your MS jumpered?

There are some HEI mods ...

I have a standard V2.2 MS1. No mods.

I decided I wanted to leave the ignition stuff as is until I've gotten the fuel side working so I tinkered some more to get the engine speed input working. I hooked the tach out from the 4-pin HEI (in the vac advanced dizzy) to the tach input on the relay board ...

Why not coil-in-cap? I have run them very successfully in the past.

No particular reason, other than it gives me options for more widely available external higher performance coils.

Thanks Gentlemen, I bought a SBC interchange manual this weekend with a pretty good explanation of the differences and the years involved and with your help I think I know what I need to now. I'll trot off down to the wrecking yard and grab some bits for mockup and testing. Looks like '85-'95 Chevy ...

I have a '69 Chevy pickup with a 350 SBC I'm converting to TBI from carb. It has a Delco Remy distributor with vacuum advance. I'm a little confused about the generations of HEI distributors (probably how they work also) and if this will work with MSII given that what I've read says it has a 4-pin ...
