you can either get the coversion kit or replace the whole distributer with the latter costing more. With the conversion kit you don't have to get a new coil doesn't hurt but not necessary if the budgets tight. You can get a coil with internal resistor and bypass the ballast resistor, but at the very least if you use the old coil and it has a ballast resistor get a new one. And read the instruction for the kit and use the specified type of coil/ballast resistor.

Mine has a Mallory, I just took the points out and replaced it with the electronic, kept the same distributor. I got an Accel coil for heat and vibration which has a gel inside instead of oil, and a set of $90 Accel wires. I didn't have to change the coil or wires. You'll see a difference with the electronic ignition, best $90 I ever spent, alot more response in the throttle.
