I know what the waveform for a points ignition looks like but I cannot find what the waveform is for the supply to a Mopar electronic ignition. And I haven't found it after hours of GOOGLING it. The HEI adapter seems to be the best bet at this point.


I googled it, well actually DDG. First link listed had your waeform.

Might try honing your googlefu. Phrase I used was "mopar electronic ignition waveform"


I think at this point [Linked Image]. Thanks for the help but I already found that. What that covers is the waveform from the distributor pickup, not the waveform in the coil circuit. So while it's interesting, it's not the answer. So I would prefer this thread end now. I'll figure something out.
