Several years back, Patricks had an exclusive contract with Mallory to sell the Unilite with vacuum advance for the 235 series engine. Apparantly, Patrick didn't sell enough to satisfy the contract, and Mallory sued Patrick to end the contract. The last I heard was that Patrick had shipped all the Unilites back to Mallory. Has Patrick started selling them again?
My friend has one of these with the vacuum advance in his 261, and it has worked great. No problems at all. If you really want a Unilite with vacuum advance you can buy the 250 model and do a little machining. Just don't let Tony do the work for you, he hacks it up with a grinder!
