[Healeys] Pertronix Polarity Change

All,
I've decided to go to an alternator so I have to change the car to negative
ground.  It has a positive ground Pertronix distributor. Do I have to do
anything more to the distributor than installing a negative ground module
in place of the positive ground one?

BTW, aided by the kind donation of some shroud material I was able to patch
my shroud with sound metal.  I put the new piece in with my MIG welder.
After a bit of practice on the donated piece  I worked out I could do a
series of short, basically tack welds without any brunthrough.  It looked
like shit when I was done, but it ground down nicely without distortion.
Some hammer and dolly work and the repair should be invisible.

Thanks Again,
Mike Tobin
Townsend, Montana.
