<VV> High performance coil problem with electronic ignition (1962 Monza PG)

[Dennis PLEAU]

I've had nothing but problems with high perfromance coils from both Accel (2) and Pertronics (3).  I'm back to running stock Corvair coils and they seem to fire my 0.040 gap under all conditions.  I think the tempertures the coils sees in the stock location breaks down the something in the coil and they start missing big time.
