A recent, thread I saw had some dicey opinions of the Pertronix, although not the original topic of the thread.

What do you all think? I bought one a while back and was thinking about putting it in this weekend.

The thing that sucks is it seems like there are 2 basic opinions:

1. "They suck and I have replaced x number this year and now have my points back in"

2. "I've had one in for x years and it's great"

Is the defect rate that high? I don't want to "downgrade", but I've also heard a lot of good things about them. I don't have personal experience so I welcome your opinions.

Thanks for the help,

Chris
