The pickup coil I sheld by a couple of screws in dist. It just replaces by r&r. But you need to set an air gap and you need to pull the vacuum diapham in order ot make sure it doesn'thit reluctor. Pic is of a v8 but yours is similar. If you check orange and purple wire and it has 400-800 ohms it is ok.
