Title: non org crossram dist,wiring,coil?
Post by: hotz on November 05, 2009, 07:10:42 PM

Hello,
I am working on a 69 z28. I would like to put on a non orig crossram. Does anybody know what kind or where to get a dist, coil, and  wiring harness that would work that would not break the bank? Or what would the requirement be to make this work?  Also would I still need the amp? Thanks!!! Any other info/pointers would be helpful!!!

Whats the matter with the stock setup?  The transistorized ignition was not included when you bought your crossram intake over the counter, it was a separate over the counter installation.  All you need is a bracket to mount your stock coil on the firewall and your good to go.

For some reason I thought you needed a "hotter" coil/ amp and dist. You are saying the coil and dist that I have which is just the regular one will work? Thanks

Yes - the stock distributor and coil will work just fine; the cross-ram setup doesn't add anything that changes the requirements for the ignition system.
