Hei Distributor/302

Post by jades addiction »

I have a 302 motor which now has a new MSD Hei distributor but, the two plug wire harness for the "TACH-BAT"didnt come with it and I didnt have the original one from other motor cause it was a 6 cyl. would there be a aftermarket plug that I can purchase so i can get some spark to these plugs....? Or will this have to be sought out at a junk yard? this actually is the last piece of the puzzle for me before she starts up for the 1st time, and thanks again of all your help!! :? :fr:

They are actually two different connectors. 1 for power/1 for tach. You can use your everyday spade type female connector or use the better looking "factory" connectors. I found this on e-bay :

Or I know most auto parts stores sell the power connector, just ask for a 80's GM HEI repair connector.
