Better than points
Works perfectly! I got tired of messing with points, this did the trick. Worked seamlessly with my MSD6A ignition.

Easy
Easy installation. This is the third vehicle I have installed one of these kits. They are inexpensive but reliable.

Perfect upgrade
Super easy to put into my 67 Camaro with the old Delco distributor. Hides right up in there and keeps that stock look, and my car has never fired up so fast!

it works good after 4 months
probably the best, and cheap, upgrade you can do to an old car. been using about 4 months without issue. just took a couple hours to install. fast engine startup. eliminated the problems of rough running and inconsistent points distributor. install this and you know your ignition is squared away, then just deal with your fuel or whatever other problems may be. it just needs to be installed carefully with the small sensor and magnet ring gap set accordingly. you must use the included gear bushings to get the right gap, its not that hard to do. i dont give it five stars though bc it doesnt have the key on protection of the 2 & 3 models, so it could burnout if the key is left on, which is just stupid. honestly there should only be the 2nd and 3rd models of this thing if thats the case, since the 2nd claims all the other minimum improvements you'd want. then the third claiming more energy and a rev limiter. this level 1 model just eliminates the variance and wear of points and gives smooth idle. there was no gas mileage improvement on a stock 4bbl '67 327 getting 12mpg. installed their flamethrower coil too. just note that it is a bit bigger diameter and didnt fit in the stock coil holder without a longer clamp screw. if i had a little more $ to spend, i would just buy a new distributor with the level 3 module or equivalent, and eliminate the slop in timing from the old distributor and gears as well.
