Ignitor ignition from Pertronix?

I need a little imput on the Pertronix ignitor kit. Do you think it is worth the money ($130 or so).

I got one in my truck, easy to install, works great. I'd shop around though, I'm sure you could find one cheaper.

The Petronix is an excellent upgrade and if the coil is included $130.00 isn't far off but do check around on pricing.

I recent;y read a great review of the new III series and if it is as good as the review, it will be an excellent buy.

There are other electronic upgrades out there, including Fords own Duraspark.

The Petronix has a very good track record, and most times when a problem arises it was an install issue. A very good top 2-3 choice. IMHO
