What are you doing with the car that you actually need a better ignition system than a Pertronix?
In my opinion, a well put together ignition system (Pertronix igition and coil, Seth's wires, quality cap and rotor like from The Source, and a $6 set of
Bosch W8AC plugs) is MORE ignition than any street driven Corvair could ever need.
And if you really need a rev limiter, knock sensor, etc... (like maybe for a really hot turbo you're trying to run on the street in pump gas) then I'd
recommend a Saefgard from Ray Sedman at http://www.american-pi.com/.
There are lots of other places I'd upgrade first! (Quality tires, shocks, bushings , brake hoses, brake shoes, etc, etc...)
Just my $0.02...
