Doug, you must figure out which distributor you have.. It could be an a/c 
delco or a lucas, or who knows, a Msd?

it has an advance unit of some sort, or wouldn't run at all..

then you can tell what to do.  the pertronix simply changes it from points 
to electronic...

your Missing problem is most likely elsewhere ...
