I have a 67 BJ8 and would like to convert from a positive ground to negative ground. This in order to have a better selection of radio options. Just went to the local BCCWNY show this week end and found two big Healeys converted but was unable to obtain any inforamtion. If any one has experience in this I would much appreciate some info.
Thank you

I converted my 67 BJ8 to negative ground a couple of years ago. Everything went well and
it was easy. You have to monkey with the tachometer though to get it to read correctly.
If you can't get enough info on the procedure let me know and I will go through my notes and get you
the info that I used.

Good luck,

Larry
