Has anyone had good luck with the Pertronix setup that supposidly eliminates points with a Hall Effect type sensor? I know they sell these for about $70 for Mopar big block single point dizzies.

Had one in my 440 for several years now and no problems at all.

I think Stu (MidPenMopar) changed recently (Last year) been having problems with another brand but has not a comlaint about the pertronics yet.

Had one in my old 69 Camaro and it worked great. Easy install. I currently am running their stand alone rev limiter in my Sig car. It is small enough to tuck up under the dash and can be adjusted in 100 rpm increments.

No complaints here...

I run a points dizzy and pertronix points conversion with the 40,000 volt flame thrower coil thats for it,been 9 yrs

never skiped a beat yet

dont use nothing but a pertronix rotor,others fit and will work but the are not right,sloppy fit

I put one on every mopar I get,first thing is loose the stock crap

fixin to use a points dizzy and a conversion on the 440 truck i am a buildin up

Used it on two cars so far. wouldn't bother with anything else.

All the others have some issue, and I have had problems with the unilite personally.

Would you suggest bumping the timing a few degrees towards the advance side after install of this?

dont see why not

as long as it does not ping run as much as it will take

cheap gas I back off on the timming,but with good gas I bump it up to about 14* BTDC

cheap gas I back down to 10* and cruz

just barly pings on 93 gas hard on the wot blast

mine is a high milage stock 360 headed 318 with a 60710 voodoo roller cam,LD4B intake 600 carb headers,stock hs lock up a999,8 3/4-3.23 gear,29x15x15 M/Ts

gets about 18-19 mpgs under 60mph in a 85 stepside

Just do it, you won't regret it!

just do it

it will be great on the 383,IMO

may not get the mpgs I get with a sb though

Ditto, I have had one in my coronet for years. Would not have anything else!!!

It's all I'll ever run,.....just be sure to buy the Flamethrower coil, the ohm rating is different, eliminate the ballast resistor, follow the instructions,....and if you go with either Pertronix I or II, (I'd recommend II) conversion kit, do not remove the green looking "Tape" on the rotor magnet, and do not use a metal feeler gage to set the air gap, a plastic gage is supplied,.....I'd recommend you purchase a new/rebuilt distributor for your conversion, as the HallCell is sensitive to "sloppy" tolerances in the dist shaft, a worn shaft/bushings will shorten/destroy the life of the HallCell, and cause irratic ignition woes,.......you will see an increased starting ability, and cleaner, longer use of dist caps, plugs, as long as you upgrade all your componets at the same time,....Pertronix also has plug wires avaliabl in black for mopar applications,....also do not run solid core racing wires, as this WILL destroy the HallCell
