Re: [Chrysler300]Electronic Ignition ?

Hi Charlie: Go with the Chrysler set up. I've heard pro and con on
Petronix. Also, you will be able to get Chrysler replacement parts at
ANY parts store. You can mount the ECU anywhere, not just the
firewall, such as inner fender panel forward near where the horns
bolt etc. That's what I did no my 'F' after we converted the
'original' distributor to Chrysler electronic system. They are virtually
trouble free. Also on my '61 Newport wagon and '68 Imperial.
Good luck,
