Petronix
anyone running petronix ignition?
had a few ignition problems this weekend and have been told that this might be the way to go if i want to eliminate points. any personal experience is appreciated and if you have photos of your set up, please attach thanks

Works good. Just don't leave your key on with the engine not running. Could burn it up.

The pertronix is a great product. you can leave the key on with the pertronix 2 that recently came out.

I have the petronix and have used it for 2 years without any problems. I cary a spare set of points incase the petronix fails but that seems to be unnecessary.

A great , proven product. I bought mine online at Summit.
Jegs also sells them online. The pertronix in our track car takes a beating at constant high rpms and never changes dwell angle like points do . Our lap times came down also. If you are just city driving , you should see slightly better MPG. Marty
