There's a couple of them out there. You can find one or two in the summit catalog. I also saw something in a recent Classic Trucks magazine that reviewed the choices. I can try to dig them up if nobody else can help you out.

What exactly is it that you are looking for? I have a 74 corvette with points dizzy that runs the tach so I kept the dizzy and bought a pertronics unit to replace the points. Otherwise I would have just converted to a HEI ignition distributor like I have on my 1967 stepside.

If you want a Pertronix Ignitor I will cut you a killer deal on one! If you need the entire distributor, I think we could work that out too. Send me a PM and we can talk about it.

go to www.pertronix.com . Iirc, you can get them through summit or jegs. I can also buy one through my local parts store.

A stock GM marine HEI looks like points, I ran one on my 1930 Model A because a regular HEI wouldn't fit behind the 6:71 blower. I ran it for 8 years with no problems ever!!
