<VV> Electronic ignition choices

[Mark Durham]

Chuck, I have the Pertronix II with a std 12 volt coil (removed the resister
wire from the circuit) and the car runs great. I'm firing iridium plugs with
a .050 gap and the car runs great.  The benefit of the II is that it
controls Dwell, where the I does not. Got mine off Ebay from another corvair
vendor a few $ cheaper.
