Re: Pertronix or Mopar?

It's pretty robust actually.  Can't run a super charger or nitrous without an ignition box but the company makes a HP box for that rhealm or you can add an msd amplifier box.  Get the ignitor 2 for a touch more power with its variable dwell.
I have the regular one and it's good w its 35000 volts.

Thank you to all whom replied to this question!
It is for my friend's car, and he wants to keep it looking stock.  He 
asked my advice, and I was concerned he might be giving up spark power 
and/or timing accuracy by going with a Pertronix.  I will tell him to go 
Pertronix based on all your advice.
