Distributorless CFI???

[Fredric Fitzgearld]

All,

First, let me say that I'm amazed at the accumulative knowledge of this 
list.  It is am honor to be on this list, at all.   :)

Now, forgive me if this seems like a stupid question but I haven't found 
answers in the archives.

I understand that the computer on a '85 Merc 302 (CFI) communicates with 
the distributor, in some way.  Is there a way to fool the computer into 
thinking that the distributor is there so I can use my stock electronic 
ignition? 

Ideally, I would like to use my performer intake, stock '70ish ignition, 
and '85 CFI on my '66 289.  Is it possible to use just the fuel stuff 
and fool the other inputs into thinking everything is fine?  I'm even 
willing to make manual adjustments on the fly, with tuning pots, if it's 
possible.  IMO, it's better then a carb, by a far cry.

Any other help, or comments, are welcome.

Thanks for the tolerance,

FEF
