I did in a '79 CJ5. I put in an HEI. Yes it makes a difference. it
runs smoother especially when going to higher altitudes. It hesitates
less etc etc. power increase ? I don't really think there is a power
increase ..(other then that the engine runs smoother so it does what you
want it to) I put on a weber carb too (that with the new ignition makes
a real nice difference.) I got the distributor from a salvage yard (for
$15 from a chevy 260-something I believe, you have to swap the gear for
one out of a V8 AMC engine.)
