derf,

the 123ignition will stay stable throughout its life. There are no wearing
parts in it. It lacks the springs and the bob-weights down in the base of
the dizzy housing, where most of the instability comes from. Everything is
controlled electronically.

The video is IMHO not comparing apples to oranges, it's comparing real life
scenarios.

The stability is mostly due to the bushings/bearings and advance mechanism
in the dizzy.
The 123 Dizzy was new, and therefore more stable out of the box than used
dizzys, unless they use crap for bearings and/or have bad QC.

That comparison was good to show how good the new 123 is, but it was
comparing apples to oranges for performance.
A new dizzy with points and a new dizzy with Pertronix installed would make
a better comparison.
