Trying to fire up the camper, eliminated the smog crap and trying to stream out the wiring mess and wire this distributor as an old school wiring system. How do I wire in a tfi one ? Is it possible to do to bypass uneeded crap and must use this distributor? I still have the ecc wired into the harness and hoping to just let the wires do their thing. What wires do I need to jump/rewire to get it running.? Thanks
 
But on the bright side, I do have a 2.8 distributor non tfi if I need to go the other route.... which I am sure would be the best route. Cheers
 
I am a bit lost on this .... can anyone tell me what wires to put where in this set up? and yes using the 3 bottom wires on the tfi dis. thanks. there has to be an old school guy left in here who has done this in the past. Cheers I have the box wired for main ground and positive (key on) power. the ignition box that i had sitting around is an old GP MagnaSonic Electronic Ignition. i dont need the plugs as I will make my own connections.

found these two diagrams, but can't fully make the connection, if some one has a better diagram please post.
