, I was looking through my new Summit and found an electronic ignition conversion from the points system, it's $74.00 and says it installs in 15 minuites and theres a listing for MOST ford 6's with an motocraft distributor from '66-'69 I belive, being that this car will be a daily driver, would this be a good idea for reliability? It's made by pettronix and has 1/4 deg of timing accuracy. it's a solid state system.
Oh yeah, i'd be for the Falcon's 200 6.
I put the Petronix unit on my 390 and love it. No more monkeying with points, easy tuneups and it always starts quick. Very reliable. I'd go for it if I was you.
Thanks, are they as easy to install as they say?Quote:

That's exzactly what I was thinking, I need the money I have now for the voltage regulator but once I get that taken care of, I can save $74.00 and get it, would pay for itself because points alone are $14.00 and the condensor is like 16.00 and replacing both of those for a yearly tune up adds up in 2 tune ups approx.Quote:

ok kid its me again!..does the car start and run with the original ignition system?...if so, put the 75 bucks toward what you need to make the car road worthy!....once you get it on the road and insured and runnin real well then you can start deviating to small improvements such as an electronic module......don't get mr wrong your thinkin in the right direction but is it reaslly necessary at this point in time?...............
Yeap, real easy. And they come with very understandable instructions. 2 wire hook up. Removing the points is the hardest part. LOL. Nah, real easy to do.Quote:
