I've accumulated this group of parts with the intention of putting it on my COPO. I want to confirm if these parts all work together (I think they do), and if anyone has a wiring schematic so I know I'm hooking everything up ok. Any tips/advice/thoughts?

You will need a rev Pol distributor to be technically correct but it appears they setup that 310 to potentially work as a rev. The YC310 is the standard distributor. I have a rev Pol distributor in the garage that I need to restore.


Read through this thread to see if it helps any.

The Rev Pol coil was unique as well Jim, but no reason you can't hook all that up and run it as you have it. Just not sure the light/switch will connect or function with that coil. PM me with your email and I'll send you the Rev Pol instructions.

I have a few wiring schematics I can send.

Thanks for the link Darrell. Are you referring to the jumper wire between the two condensers as the modification to make it work like a Rev Pol? The SuperMag transformer has another terminal under that red cap, is that used when you need a double coil?

Condensers are separate on rev. Cam plates are also a little different but again you can run that distributor with rewiring. norcam is correct you need a rev Pol coil. Super mag is for a magneto. I have a couple coils but not worth using.

I believe this is the coil you need for the Rev Pol system. I'll be happy to sell you this one.
