I got talked into the Petronix 3 points replacement in 2015( the rev limiter was a very attractive feature). The Car did not get back on the road till last year, so not much testing, but I did read here of all the issues with electronic points replacement and wondered when” stranded at the side of the road “ was going to happen to me.

I will go back to points and condenser, any input on best product available is appreciated.
I like Blue Streak points and old stock AC Delco. That's about it.
