Rodney, The easy way has to paths, depending on how much money you wish to spend. 1) Go to the local auto parts store and buy a rebuilt distributor for your car. The wire has already been replaced. 2) For much more money, buy a MSD billet distributor for an Olds and a MSD 6A ignition module. Then you will have breakerless ignition with long duration fire. You could send your distributor to Stinger or Petronix and have it modified into a breakerless system and then add a MSD 6A ignition module, but I believe the MSD distirbutor is better in the long run, even though it is more expensive.
