I'm all for eliminating points. I was making a living changing points and condensers every 10K miles when some of the "experts" who post here were still filling their Pampers, or possibly long before that. Using a Pertronix as a trigger is leaning on a weak reed, however. Both GM and Chrysler have 6 cylinder pickup coil and reluctor trigger systems that are far more reliable (and less expensive) than some fragile setup like Pertronix, plus those have close to 50 years of successful operation on millions of vehicles. Either trigger assembly is easily adaptable to the stovebolt distributor by anyone with some basic machining skills and enough of an open mind to try.
