Putting a electronic ignition in a fat boy dizzy.

[Busted-bolt]

I was just wondering if any body has had any success with putting a electronic ignition in the larger "fat boy" distributor. The points in this one have a brass post that will not allow a normal electronic ignition conversion.

Nice stuff , Thanks Glenn! I will be going with the 12v one because my bus has ben converted to twelve volt . I relay did not want to hack up my dizzy advance plate , this one looks like a drop in. I will keep a spare set of points and wire in the bus somewhere in the unlikely event the electronic unit goes bad on the road somewhere.
