There really isn't anything to it. Black wire to negative of coil, red to the positive. The pickup "bolted" in exactly where the points would normally go with two little screws: one for holding, one for adjusting. The magnet is pressed onto the rotor shaft with strong fingers. The only adjustment is in the distance between the magnet and the pickup. The pertronix kit normally has a small strip of plastic that one would put in between the magnet and pickup, tighten the adjustment screw with everything slightly snug, and then remove the plastic strip. The strip is about as thick as a credit card. I don't think these things have to be 100% exact, which is why they are so nice to have in the cars.
