Crane Cams XR-i Electronic ignition or HEI?

[joelboxt]

hey was looking to lose the points on my 71 Cheyenne thought about the HEI swap and have seen these electronic ignition boards you add in place of the point? what would be a better way to go? this XR-i unit seems to be decent, moisture, oil resistant. has some sealed case around it.

just wondering how much voltage these things put out? i guess they would put out whatever the stock coil voltage is right?

i know the HEI stuff is about 50,000 volts. but if i go with this crane cams XR-i deal.. i guess i could get a 50,000 volt coil and pretty much have HEI right?

any input would be a big help..


oh and heres the link for that XR-i electronic ignition: http://www.jegs.com/cgi-bin/ncommerc...15&prmenbr=361
