    I just saw your post sorry for not getting back sooner I have been installing a boat lift and wiring it.

    I mount them in the area where the points/condenser use to be not up high like you have them but if flywheel clears them I guess its o.k.. You might have to drill out the circle a bit on the kaw module to get screw through but it looks like you got the screw through. You will also need to bend the metal tang up for the wire if mounting down low.

    On the red atom instructions it said to shorten the gap I can’t remember how much but it was like 5 thousandths smaller than normal gap.

    I hope you did get them to work. Sometimes you have to swap the coil wires around meaning put the small ground wire of coil to module and the normal small wire that goes to points to ground if it happens to be a positive grounded engine. Looking at your pictures that would be swapping the small green wire and small black wire around. Meaning you would be putting small green wire to ground and small black wire to module. Normally evinrudes and johnsons with original coils you don’t but your coils look like replacements.

    If memory serves me correctly I think you can spin the flywheel backwards and if it sparks then you know wires have to be reversed. The flywheel does have to spin quicker to get spark with modules than with points I normally use a rope to test.

    Hope you got it going,
    Joe
