Help needed with distributor wiring.

I am putting an 83 Mustang GT engine into my 60 F100 but need a little info on the coil and distributor wiring.
All the wiring had been removed before I received the engine so I need to know where each wire should go.

I have three wires coming off the distributor and just need to know where they should be connected.

Anyone?

It sounds like you have a dist with a mag trigger output. You need an ignition control module like a MSD that excepts a mag trigger input.

Better late than never! MustangSteve has a wiring diagram showing the conversion from points to electronic ignition at http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/Shop/6755/conversion.html
