I just got the collar filed off and now Im waiting for the two piece collar in the mail to try it out. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2006 Posts: 2,544 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Nov 2006 Posts: 2,544 | You might want to check out a Pertronix electronic ignition set-up. I have used them and had great luck. If you do have a problem you can always carry the point set-up to put in to get you back home. | | | | | Joined: Aug 2008 Posts: 403 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Aug 2008 Posts: 403 | I also have that setup in my 4cyl.
