You can use it, but you have to cut off a leg and you end up only having 1 or 2 bolts holding it on. It's not a very good way to go, but it does work if you need it to.

the icm is the ignition control module. its found inside the dizzy. its a little black box it has like 3 or 4 wires running to it. one of my friends icm went out and we changed it with a sohc icm and its works fine. you may be able to use the one out the ls dizzy.
