SC distributor Questions

[Mike D.]

Is the SC distributor a magnetic pick up in it's stock form? I'm just used to seeing points and a condenser. What am I looking at here?
BTW no dizzy diagram in the 911 dia. section...

yep. Looks normal to me.

I think 74 was the last year for points based ignition

OK so I'm trying to hook up a MSD 6AL - in a 914 - and I have the green wire with two spade connectors - now I need to get the mag pickup adapter for the msd........

2 Tachometer Signal Black wire from left end of MSD unit (Tach connection)

3 Signal Ground (Green wire shield) Grd. Purple wire

4 Coil Hot +12 volts Orange coil wire

5 Switched +12 volts Small red wire

6 Signal (Green wire center conductor) Pos. Green wire

Heavy red wire +12 volts (wire to starter terminal
Heavy black wire Grd. (wire to chassis and engine)

(Looking at top of plug on wiring harness with the beveled
edges to the front.)
