Someone asked how a new harness would attach to a 2000 series Bendix
mag.

As far as I've ever seen, they always come with a new back plate and it
simply attaches to the mag with 4 screws. These screws only get torqued
to 35 inch lbs, so you need a very low scale torque wrench. Over
torqueing can lead to case warping and was the subject of an AD on them
years ago.
You'll need to tell them what plugs you have (5/8 or 3/4 barrel) when
you order your harness.
Also,you want to make sure when you are installing the harness, that all
of the wire ends or insulators go inside the holes in the distributors
on the back of the mag. It's easy to miss one or two of the holes and it
won't run very well that way. (Don't ask me how I know).

Hope this helps some.
