Hello, can I get many opinions on installing electronic ignition on 914s?

I ran the XR700 Fireball on my 914-4 for years without a problem.
I tried the Pertronix for a bit and found it didn't provide the same power as the Fireball. So, I switched it back and now the Pertronix is sitting on a shelf gathering dust. |
