Accel bolts right on, holes line up, etc.
I haven't tried a Dyna, so don't know if the same applies.

I cut the primary wires off the old coil and crimped eyelets on the end to fasten them to the Accel coil, that's the only thing I needed to do.

The electronic ignition off a KZ440 or the 82-83 750 twin will bolt right on, I know this for a fact, I've used both :)

You have to change the timing advancer and replace the points mounting plate with the ignition pickup (it doesn't use a mounting plate), and mount the igniter somewhere (I mount it to the side of the airbox behind the right sidecover).

I bought a couple of 440 wiring harnesses off eBay to get the plug for the igniter, cut it off and spliced it in the 750 wiring harness.
IIRC there are two plugs on each harness that will work for the igniter.
