If i had to do it all again? Convert a points car to electronic? Stock
motor? Pertronix and a good coil. Catches all of the low-hanging fruit and
no connectors to buy, boxes to find and worry about, etc. $100 and youre
done. scrounge a tfi coil from the junkyard if youre cheap. and the old used
points in the glove box would get out out of a bind on a long trip.


New electronic technology is 10000% better than the old. Zero contest here.
I use these five-legged chips (VN920 and similar) that with zero added
components, drive 30 amp inductive loads off a microprocessor and dont even
get warm. Costs $5. 10 years ago, a whole pile of components and careful
design and trickery. Today, i hand them out to students to drive motors with
no explanation (which is sad, in a way).
