/6 to v8 ignition/wiring help please

Hi Guys,

so I've finally got my sb into the 68 dart (former /6, now a V8), and I've got my hands on a magnetic pickup distributor (and a wire hareness for the four connector ballast, is this the v8 one?). I'm wondering, will this just drop in and connect to the exsisting slant six wiring? The ignition box in the car is a 5 wire, and the ballast resistor is a two connector, not really sure what mix of parts works. And before I go ordering stuff I'd like to know where I'm going before I spend the grocery money. LOL

i've read that nobody seems to be pleased with the orange box, so if I do have to upgrade what is dependable (I'm building to drive).

Sorry for all the questions, but summer feels like it's already hear and I'm running out of time

BTW: Yes I have the 340 torsion bars and some upper control arms for the brake conversion :)

Cheers
RJ
