Does Pertronix make an electronic ignition module for a 6 volt? I've looked everywhere but never have seen one. I'm assuming they don't, but would love to be proven wrong.

Also search eBay and there are tons of 6 volt kits ready to go. The prior owner of my 45 gmc put one in and I love it. Faster starts for sure over stock points.

There are 6v and 12v Pertronix units for 216/235/261 and GMC 228/248/270/302 engines.

Make sure you match the voltage, the ground-polarity, and the year of the distributor.
