    2.0 or 2.6? Vaccum lines, the two to the distributor, and one to the weber. Ignition, easy the black and blue wires that come from the distributor controlls the ignition, unless yours are different (I have an 87, i think they are the same just the body style is different). You may be able to get a distributor from an 87-89 Ram 50 and it should have an electronic ignition, if you just wanted to get rid of the points system. But fully electronic seems to be quite difficult from what I've heard. If it is a 2.0, you can get the EFI intake from a 2.4 and it will bolt right on, fuel delivery would need to be changed, and you would have to have a ECU to run EFI.

    Thanks guys. I think I have decided to run a msd 6a ignition module with a blaster 2 coil. I have been trying to figure out what wires will be the trigger wires when installing the new msd unit. My truck is an 86 yet has the electronic distributor, there are no mechanical points. Does anyone know how to properly hook up a MSD 6a to a Ram 50. Thanks.
