Heh, tech at first I thought you meant that 10-20 bucks is too much more for the guy who started this thread to pay and that there is more points to life. lol You had me confused. But yeah the guy is real cool. He has me next in line to work for him and everything once this other kid quits or something. He always helps me out, etc and of course knows more than me so I listen to him. He has given me some deals (nothing big but still I can't complain at all). Plus he knows that if he gets me a job there then all my money will just go back to him. I was joking with him and told him that if I get to work there then he doesn't have to worry about paying me because the next day my pay check will get handed back to him and parts handed to me.
But anyways, I think the Pertronix is fine. I wouldn't go with the cheap 78 dollar Perform one. There is a reason that all the others are 120-145 bucks and that one is just 80 bucks. I always used to buy cheap parts for things (not just hot rods, I mean drums, guitar stuff, dirt bikes, etc) and they would just break or not last long and in the end you spend more. Now I take longer to save for something better. No more cheap stuff for me anymore, I learned my lessons pretty good a few times already.
