If I may piggyback on this?  What about a '72 340 WITH electronic ignition?  Colors? Reproductions?
Thanks!

Good question, I thought the orange wires started in 73 but hopefully someone here will know.

I have seen reproductions offered for '72s but for points ignitions, not electronic.  :dunno:

For a 72 I think I'd go with black.  My 73 is an earlier build and I remember black wires being on the car when it sat in the garage for years.  I have a suspicion they were original but they got tossed before I realized I should be keeping those parts.  Now I'll never know.  I think early 73's were still black but I can't prove it.  :alan2cents:

If the car is modified with Pertronix, then does it really matter ? It's still a 70 340, so it should still get black wires...
