Was checking up on ignition upgrades from Pertronix again and saw that they offer the Ignitor III for our vacuum dizzies now. Supposed to work like a box style ignition without the box(multiple spark, rev limiter). Did a search here and didn't see anything for that model. Anybody used an Ignitor III and have any useful feedback on or off a Porsche? Not looking for opinions on whether or not Pertronix belongs in our cars or not, just on the functionality of the Ignitor III. With that said, I know this may start a (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stromberg.gif) storm..... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stirthepot.gif)

It may have been mentioned, but the 009 has too much advance. What ends up happening is you end up with way too little advance down low so that you don't over advance above 3K RPM. The Mallory's that Jake use to sell were fairly linear and had 16 deg total advance (12-28).
