I was looking into this for my brother's blazer. You get the proper coil and two of the wires from it go into the distributors module and the four from the other modules socket go to the ecm just as the stock HEIs' plug does.
Sounds easy on paper anyway

It really should not be any trouble. The module in the later ones have two plugs a two wire and a four wire. The larger HEI have those same wires. The two wire plug comes out of the distributor and goes back into the cap some what behind the tach and power leads. Those wires will have to be made into a harness to go from the remote coil to the module. The other wires in the cap, power and tach will have to be extended to go into the other plug on the coil. The remaining harness from the HEI will just have to be made with the smaller plug on the end.

YOU CAN DO IT MAN!!!
