Help with Ignition

[csewell878o]

I traded for another coupe, it has a 351 windsor, alum heads, Alot of parts, But it has a hei distributor(chevy style) and it keeps burinig up modules. What do I need to do? Or does any body have a distributor for a 351w that is carb?

Is it wired to the ignition on hot or has it been wired to a constant hot?Needs to be switch on only.Also the brand of module is important if made in mexico they will burn up quiet easily.The 2 that i have owned would burn up if i turned the switch on engine not running for any length of time pretty quick.I beleive it is black wire with light green ignition hot

Almost forgot make sure when module is installed that it has some of that die electric grease underneath it like is used behind tfi modules and on sparkplug boots.lol I think thats what is called.:)
