The original Pertronix Ignitor can melt if the key is left on for a long time without the engine running. If you go Pertronix, be sure to only use the Ignitor II with a coil that matches the Ignitor II's ohm needs, whether the Flamethrower II or another brand coil with the same characteristics. The Ignitor II has the advantage over the original Ignitor by having a circuit that senses when the ignition key is left on to prevent the Ignitor II from melting. It's written about on Pertronix's site.
