Ignition wiring ?

I am putting a 351w and tranny from a 84F250 into a 66F100 and need to wire in the ignition. Does anybody here have a schematic for the 84 ignition wiring? Possibly a reccomendation for the best manual. I have one manual and it doesn't even come close to showing me anything. I did a similar swap years ago and know it was not difficult but I need updated schematics. Thanks, Rick.

Not sure what you want to use. But I would reccomend just using a MSD box (like a 6A). The Ford amplifiers like to die on you at the worst times leaving you broke down. Mine luckly went dead in my driveway and I had a MSD 6A laying around. With the Durraspark dis. use the MSD's magnetic pickup hookup input (the little 2 pin plug coming out of the MSD box). The distributors violet wire goes to the MSD's green and the dis. orange wire goes to the MSD's violet wire. The black wire coming off of the ford distributor is unused (when using a MSD) and can be cut off. Hope this helps.
