Replacing the plugs on my 89' this evening with some auto lite 24s. My boat has electronic ignition on it already as well from the previous owner. Should I keep it with the .35 gap or open it up a tad?

EI conversion in the old distributor or a complete EI distributor?

.035 gap works very well with my EI. EI is not the same as GM's HEI. The spark energy to the plug is the same on EI vs. points. It is the coil that boosts the spark power. Another gimmick is the MSD systems, but they really are needed only on very high performance engines.

It is just the conversion. And I will go with a .35 on them and see how it comes out.
