I have a 911 1970T as a donor car that the engine is coming from. Currentley, it's setup with a CDI (Captive Discharge Ignition). Will I need to move the Bosche CDI box over from the 911 inorder to get the engine running in the teener? Thanks in advance.

And of course it mounts on a plate attached to the front of the battery tray.

You will have to rearrange the wiring, as the CD box is not in the same relative location as it is on a 911. The engine harness is different too. I can provide a wiring diagram if you like, as I have done this on my car. I have the diagram on my computer at home, but not here.
I would suggest that you purchase a spare CD box and keep it with you. They are notorious about blowing the power transistor and leaving you stranded on the side of the road. I mounted mine on the back side of the factory bracket, and if the primary fails, I can just hook the wiring to the spare and continue down the road.

AA now has repro mounting brackets available now for a clean installation.
