I originally ran a Crane unit but had to change to the Pertronix when it
failed.  It did not just stopped working but would not allow the engine to
fire above 4000 rpm.

I prefer the Pertronix because it does not require one to modify the dizzy
in order to install it.  This means that you can carry a spare set of points
and condenser along with you in case the Pertronix fails.

Another advantage is that it is less expensive than the crane unit.

Just my humble opinion.

What is the collective wisdom of this group (I know, it sounds like an
oxymoron....) on points versus electronic ignition in a TR3 ?

When I asked about recoring vs not recoring a radiator, the overwhelming
response was to re-core (which I did).  What think you now ?
