Wiring up distributor
Ok so my dad is swapping in a carbed 5.0 from a 1983 mustang into his 87 and mostly everything is done but we need to know how to wire up the distributor. It came with the motor and it has 3 wires coming off of it. The colors are Brown, Orange, and Black. I'm assuming black is the ground but where do the other 2 go? He said something about it being made in canada, i dont know if that makes a difference. Thanks in advance for any help

Ok, i THINK i have this wired up right. I have a switched 12v to the Coil positive side, I have a constant 12v and ground to the ignition module,and both coil and distributor are hooked up to the ignition module.

RE: Wiring up distributor
there are two connectors on the box.. the one with two wires red / and white = red to switched 12v and white needs to be grounded and the connector with 4 wires is for distributor and coil neg side...you do have the 4 wire one wired correctly I assume???
