Whether you get one from PK or Classic Retrofit, why run 70s OEM when a modern solution is available...

Bottom line: Both have exhibited poor reliability! Being "modern" has basically nothing to do with reliability.
Again, always carry a spare, especially a Bosch one! Many of the original 3-pin Bosch CDIs are still in use with over 50 years in service.
Some waste money having their 3-pin Bosch CDI unnecessarily rebuilt!
When it comes to "modern solution", you'll find the Parts Klassik CDI uses electrolytic capacitors. Not a reliable "modern solution" for reliability in a very HOT environment.
A design like that would NEVER be used by an OEM auto manufacturer!
