It's very easy to convert those older britcars to negative ground.  You just
swap the battery leads, repolarize the generator, and swap the coil primary
leads.  I've done this to both of my cars.  Perhaps the guy wasn't such a bozo
after all?

p.s.  If you have an ammeter, you swap its leads;  otherwise it reads backward.

>>I've done my cars before, but am about to do one this
     weekend that has an electric tach, (all of my cars have
     had mech. drive tachs).Any words of wisdom
     on getting that to work after switching polarity ?<<

                    cheers-
