Yeah, I shouldn't have said that about the track record. I don't have any personal experience with Pertronix. Hopefully in a few months I will have completed the final testing of an idea that others have been successful with already. It's GM HEI using the stock distributor. Several people have done it and are happy with it, but I wanted to do it so that you can revert back to points with the same distributor if you choose. This involves making a special plate that is clearanced for the points tower and cam screw, and reshaping the reluctor for a set screw system. It has been tested on a distributor machine, but I want to see it running on my test engine which isn't back from the machine shop yet.
