^ This, because 740/940 layshafts may not have a dizzy drive on them.
However if you choose to use a wasted spark type system and eliminate the distributor entirely, you won't need a 240 one.
Either way, you'll also need another 16V cam gear to put on the layshaft, since the 8V ones aren't as wide, and that layshaft runs the oil pump.
