[Spridgets] Midget 1500 distributor options

[Tracy Drummond]

I will go with a Petronics unit and have found a good used OPUC module as a
spare along with a resistor.  The original distributor base with dummy OPUS
has the proper mechanical advance and I can go with or with out vacume for
even more in the upper RPMs.

Thanks for all the advice.

Any A-series distributor will fit and work.  The 1500 engine is a long
stroke design, and can handle quite a bit of total advance curve.  Someone
else can point you to an internet site that has the specs on all the
different stock advance curves.  I would find one from a '68 1275, and then
put a petronics unit in it.
