How hard is it to change ignition?

Hi guys,

How hard is it to change the ignition on my 88 305 TPI motor? I was thinking about putting something aftermarket on there, where is the ignition in relation to the coil? Thanks

It is quite easy. Usually just splice wires or you can buy a harness so that it is plug and play and then just hook up the power wires for the box.
I've got the MSD 6A on my car.
Here is on old Engine pic of my TPI setup,
