Simply use the original '87 coil and power transistor assy. If there is still no spark, try swapping the crank angle sensors [distributor assys]. They are interchangeable. It doesn't matter if it is a Mitsubishi or Hitachi unit, just the caps and rotors are different.
Yes, I swapped crank angle sensors first. When that still didn't work, I started looking for a way to hookup the older style coil. Never did find a way.. I guess I'll pull the coil off the '87 and have it tested. Who'd have guessed I'd get this close to having this car running, and something this rudimentary would stop me.. heh.. Thanks guys.
