69 TI system questions

[John A.]

I have a few questions regarding the 69 TI systems. I’ve read the articles on the TI Specialty site. Good info, but I have some additional questions.

First -Does anyone know of an article that describes how to run a non MP distributor on a car that was originally equipped with TI? … what change need to be made to the existing TI harness?

Second – Has anyone tried running the “modern replacement” amplifiers available in the aftermarket on their TI systems with success?

Thanks

Re: 69 TI system questions

John, I have used the MSD box on several TI equipped cars. Use the original distributor to trigger the box. Very marked improvement in performance. For originality you can paint the box black and hide the box and harness with a little effort. If judging is not required, use the MSD ignition coil and a real good set of ignition wires also

if the wire supplied to connect the dist

to the "box" is not "keyed" for orientation make sure you get the polarity correct or your engine will not run correctly
