Yes second green can go to the tack.


My power wire from the main harness(or your Relay) comes across the back of the firewall to the passenger side where I have my coil mounted. Wire is Tee'd with one wire dropping into the coil and the other going on further to the positive side of the module. Nothing fancy. Just good solid connections.

Hi guys,

With the help from the guide I’ve installed the HEI to get rid of the leanburn. However, I’m pretty sure I made a mistake wiring the relay, since it will only run without the relay.

I’ve used a Hella 4RA 965 400-071 relais.
30 – powered directly by battery with 15amp fuse.
85 – ground
86 – To coil +
87 – To coil +

I guess 86 should go somewhere else. I’ve got a few pictures from the spark control box behind the battery. Does anyone know which cable I should connect to 86? I can't use the wire from the ballast resistor since the leanburn system did no longer use the ballast resistor.

30: load circuit in, you've got this right.
85: trigger circuit ground, you've got this right.
86: trigger circuit feed, you've got this wrong (should go to ignition-switched +12v)
87: load circuit out

So after a lot of rewiring and repair all of these things has started to work like they are supposed to. The NOS voltage reg on a relay has done the trick. This should be related to this conversion as to my question. I have radio noise now where I didn’t have it previously. All the wiring is new and on its own circuit. I know that the condensers primary purpose was for exactly this radio noise removal. So, do I put it back in somewhere along the coil or add a noise suppressor inline somewhere? And btw, thanks Dan for all you do for everyone here. And to the countless others who have helped me, it is not forgotten.
