Well, there is some truth in what you say, and you've seen me go off on other ignition related mods that I consider silly-assed like the Mallory distributor, but I don't think the Ignitor is quite as

Electronic ignition triggering gives you a cleaner spark pulse than a points ignition. IOW, there's more energy in the electronically triggered pulse than if you use points. When you make and break a

Points with a bad or failed condenser can exhibit a 20ms rise time when the points open which significantly retards the spark as well as weakening it. But with sound components you get a 15kHz oscill

Nuts. Look at an electronically triggered hi-voltage ignition pulse and a points-trigger HV pulse. The electronic unit is cleaner (read, less ringing). I've done this. I don't write about things I ha

I use the Lumenition Optronic system in the Cooper S. I like the results so much, I'm planning to do the same for the MGB-based Victor TF. Since Minis have the distributor right behind the grill, wat

Sigh. Alright, let's look at exactly what I did say. "I agree that with a new distributor, the magnetic trigger offers no real advantage to points." I then went on for several paragraphs to say that

No, I said that. Bill reinforced a few of my comments and disagreed about using points at extreme high RPM because of points bounce. I will agree with that. My comments were directly related to Pert

Ringing is *required*, and as such I would expect the Pertronix to include capacitance to provide it, but I have no wish to spend 70 quid to find out never having had problems with points in 35 years

A point of clarification. Pertronix supplied a replacement for the original electronic 45E and 45M distributors for many years. This unit was extremely reliable and was a godsend for those owners of
