Mine's been smooth sailing since 1997. I just have the Pertronix and the Flamethrower coil. Is your's giving you fits?

I took out the dual points and installed my ignitor and coil in my 65 in 1998. Have had no problems at all and it is the best $100 I spent on the car.

I installed on on a 351 Cleveland and about 6 months latrer it just quit! My son decided since it was toast he would take it apart to see what made it tick. He broke the outer shell and found there ain't much to look at in there and put it back
on the car to see if it would like, blow up or anything and it started running again. It's been a year and it's still broke open and still running strong. Wierd, Got a new MSD distributor and box on order though.

The petronix is great. Never any kind of problems. I heard they just came out with a new one. I also have the flame thrower epoxy ingnition coil. Way better than points or black boxes
