Was the CD Ignition the package from MichaelZ505 in Albquerque at Renu-A-Vette? If so, I’m pretty sure it’s a restamped distributor, but he says it’s a real 115345 CDI box. BUT, he guts the cd internals and retrofits a transistor Ignition board in its place. It will work fine, but it’s not the same. This converts it from capacitive discharge to an inductive system equivalent to HEI. He’s honest about what he does, so I’m not knocking him, but that seems like a lot of money to not be the real thing.
