    Petronix Ignitor

    Replacing my points finally!

    Was wondering if anyone has had any experience with these. I see on their site they have ignitor 1-3, 3 being the most expensive and also has a digital reading on a rev limiter. Opinions?

    I ran an Ignitor II on my 66 289 for about 2 years and it worked very well - beat the heck outta fiddling with those points all those years. Can't say the same for the MSD on my 347 that replaced the 289 about a year ago - the pickup went bad after 6 months. I've heard about issues with the III on various forums. Don't think you could go wrong with an Ignitor II.

    Bought the one and she purr's a bit different. gotta play with the timing a bit more but i works a ton better, doesnt smell like its running rich either. +1 in my books.
