    I agree. I had the DuraSpark ll for about two years. Looked goofy under there. Got a new distributer, Pertronix kit, and it has run much better, and had NO trouble since. Good stuff, that Pertronix!:)

    Tep! That Pertronix is awesome. I went with it a couple years ago. Best $70 I spent on the car...

    Do any one have a part number and does it come with the box, distributer, & the coil? Is it hard to set up?

    All parts sold separately, at extra cost of course. :p You can't use the Duraspark box with an MSD dizzy if I recall correctly. I don't have part#'s offhand, but real easy to find on Summit's website, which is where I ordered mine. I can get part#'s when I get home if you can't find what you need.

    Thanks Matt...I just got back from a company named Performance Distributors here in town. I have read about them in CarCraft & 5.0 magazines. They have a complete set up. I talked to them about a D.U.I. distributor. Just weighing options & prices.
