THe XE's are both Dizzy and coil pack depending on their age.
There've got good fuel pumps as well.

I ran the original induction / injection system to begin with, but it won't fit under most bonnets - if you do go that way you'll need a
'power cap' to take the place of the original airbox in order to squeeze it in.
Most people eventually go carbs and dizzy / megajolt, or throttle bodies, these are both much smaller and give more power....
Also - most people ditch the alternator for a denso one, for size issues...
