Hi all;

I installed a new HEI distributor and I'm trying to figure out the wiring for the interupt.

On the dist, there is a positive batt terminal and a tack terminal. The ground is through the chassis.

There is a 3 prong harness from the electronic ignition to the hei cap

How do I wire the interupt?

HEI is a generic term and covers all electronic distributors. So, which HEI distributor did you install. A link to the one you have or one like it will work. And what engine and year do you have?
