Has anyone removed the stock distributor in place of a mechanical/vacuum advance version? Then after the change piped it into an aftermarket ignition. No SPOUT connection included in this setup. Just good ol reliable EEC free ignition.

The computer would throw a CE light for the missing SPOUT signal.
