[T3] Petronix ignitor?

[Keith Park]

I wouldn't, they  have quality control issues that have plagued them for
many years, so instead of adjusting a new set of points every 15kmi, you
have to change the pertronix.  The difference is that the points take about
5 minutes to change but the pertronix will leave you hosed somewhere where
its least convenient.

That being said, the Tbird crowd has had better success with them, no doubt
because they run much cooler in a water cooled car...,

I hate fiddly adjustments.  The last time time I did a tune up I swore I 
was done with points and swore to get one of these petronix thingies.  
I've procrastinated and haven't bought one.

Should I?

Are they really the drop in solution they say they are?
