Its fairly easy to upgrade to an electronic ignition if you already have a Delco distributor battery powered ignition, But if you have a Magneto or a Wico XB distributor, well thats a different story, and I would first convert to the Delco battery powered distributor n go from there. Heres some considerations. First, it may be easier to convert to Negative ground (that tractor was originally Positive ground), although I think Pertronix can furnish you with EITHER polarity, JUST BE DARNED SURE TO GET A SWITCH FOR THE POLARITY YOURE USING Second is voltage, again it may be easier to convert to 12 volts if youre not there already,even if Pertronix has them for 6 or 12 (Im not sure) Third I HIGHLY RECOMMEND to get the most bang for the buck from the electronic switch and utilize its full capability,,,,, ,,,upgrade to a high energy high voltage coil. Again, make sure its compatible with the electronic switches current rating as I believe Pertronix has different current rated switches for certain of their coils. CHECK WITH PERTRONIX Fourth if you run a wider plug gap and an elec switch and a high energy higher voltage coil, youre gonna need good quality spark plug wires, check with where you buy the switch. Piece of cake Eh John T
