Default ? for the ignition experts

I had a MSD (6200) multiple spark discharge bax and MSD tach adapter, running in my 302. The distributor is and Autolite that looks to have been converted to accept the electronic ignition since it has the female dist and no points. cap. I just got a 351C to put in it and have the stock distributor for it. Can I convert the stock over to accept the electronic ignition. If not what's the best/least expensivedistributor that will work?

Not an expert, but I'd say the first thing is to get rid of the cap and check for the ignition module in there.
If it's something like Pertronix Ignitor then you can buy the same thing for your other distri.
If it's a MSD module, check on what the module says. any words, numbers on it?

The points would be the same for both distributors, so I would think any electronic modules would exchange.

I'd say so as well, most people use the pertronxi ignotor II
but i was thinkijng the box he has might have come with it's own module.
would be the best to get that one back in
