Today I received the parts from IPD: plug wires, cap and rotor, and a Pertronics ignition kit. I removed the distributor to do the upgrade to electronic ignition, and found just a piece of the mounting gasket. The hardest part of the upgrade was getting the grommet to seat properly. I had to trim one of the connectors to get it through the hole, and the red wire was not long enough to reach the coil in its current location. Eventually I might relocate the coil, but for now I added a jumper to allow for enough slack.
