I'm in Plainfield, Somerset county. About an hour from Lambertville. I used to ride my bike to New Hope regularly but haven't this summer.

Wow, that's a good ride. We have lived all over that area. My son is in Piscataway. He and my wife are Rutgers grads. As well as my sister , brother in law and both nephews. The canal path through lambertville and new hope have been so crowded with people at home it's nuts. I don't even walk my dog there on weekends.

The new distributor is here ! Here is a pic as well as a pic of the instructions in case you admins want to post them. Doesn't look like too bad an install.

Yep, progress IS good!

As for posting, you did. But let's see if this cleanup is easier to read:

I'd also note that Skip White has HEI install instructions posted on their website.
While I doubt those could be copied here without permission, they do exist as a page and not a jpeg.

Thanks Gary! I could scan and post as a PDF if that would be a better option to add these to the forum .

Jim - I perused the Skip White site but didn't find any instructions on installing the HEI. Could you point me to it?

Josh - A pdf would be a help. However, those instructions don't really have all the info the people need. In order to have the power that the HEI requires most people find that a relay is required. So I would have expected a schematic of how best to do that in their instructions. Maybe the Skip White instructions do?

Sorry, their site has changed quite a bit since I last bought someone a HEI.

I'm pretty sure it used to be under the 'tech' header.

That's where I thought it would be as well, but didn't find it.

Thanks, Josh. Would this be easier to read? And, by the way, if you open it in a new tab you can search it 'cause I OCR'd it.
