The Duraspark II will not just drop in and to be honest, when going from points to electronic ignition, the easiest way is to drop an HEI in.  1 wire and regap the plugs.  I sell the TFI upgrades for the DII ignitions and the HEI's and I always recommend the HEI when moving from points.  I do recommend a 12V ceramic resistor on the HEI though.

I couldn't find this info on your Evilbay page, do you have pics/write-up for this?  After the issues I had yesterday with my Eagle breaking down on the side of the highway, I'm interested to know what you've got. 

We (you, me, whoever) should post it, for other members looking to upgrade.  If you want, send me the write-up, and pics, and I'll post it for you.

Sorry for hijacking this topic...
