Today I disconnected the old Bosch transistorized ignition system and replaced it with a new one, controlled by the MegaSquirt system.
I will drive the car for a couple of days and see how it works out, used a "stroboscope lamp" to get the mechanical ignition advance curve and made a ruff estimation out of this to create my new ignition table.
So far I must say that the car feels a little bit more responsive, could be the ignition table that makes the difference since its more linjear then the mechanical advance from on the distributor.
I also use Megasquirt to controll the electrical fan, I just put in a start temp(90degC) and a hysteres(3degC) and it will only start when necassery.
Have some more things to concerning wireing since I first want everything to work then I can put the right length on every cable including the ignition cables for the sparkplugs.
