Is that a two wire lead exiting the distributor? If so, it has probably already been converted to an aftermarket pointless system.

I was thinking about converting my recently acquired D100 to the Mopar performance electronic ignition kit, until I noticed the two wire lead exiting the distributor. I popped the cap and confirmed it had been converted to an aftermarket pointless system. It seems to work well, so I applied the, if it isn't broke---don't fix it.

It is a really good add on. I've put this kit in some of my trucks. :Thumbsup
Years later, still good.
