Re: Inboard head-scratcher
Prestolite make a great electonic ignition kit for this engine. It replaces the bresker point plate with a hall effect sensor. It is very reliable and easy to install. PCM and Crusader both used it as oem equipment on later model carbureted engines. Your local PCM dealer should be able to get it for you. If you do this put new advance springs in the distributor while you are there. the small one likes to rust and break. If you get the newer style springs set your initial timing to 10'instead of 8'<br />You will love it. Throw those points away!
