Re: To Pertronix or not to Pertonix, that is the question

[michael morgan <mmorgan@sfo.com>]

I am also trying to find an optical or hall-effect (magnetic?) replacement
for my points on '71 &72 T3s, both with stock FI.  I know the dist cap is
shorter and there is less room that a non FI dist would have due to the FI
trigger points underneath the regular points.  There are many brands,
Pertronix, Crane XR-700, Comp-U-Fire.

Anybody on the list who has stock FI w/electronic points?

Thanks,

Mike M.
