You also need a ECU and a 4-pin ballast resistor I think. Maybe Chump or Dodgevanman will post some more details, I think I'm going to be doing this swap on my 72 soon too.

Go with the two-pin ballast (easier to wire in). You will also need the wiring harness which is available new from Summit Racing under p/n DCC-3690152.

Sweet, you da man. I wasn't sure about the ballast, that's why I mentioned it. My 73 has a 4-pin w/ the electronic ignition.
