Default Re: Pertronix Ignitions

[ QUOTE ]
I used the orig dist for my 68 camaro 427 425 hp on the dyno
took a reading and printed the results. Then I put in a petronix in the dist.Took he enjine to 6000 rpm same as the orig dist and printed the results. I compared them and could not belive the torque diff and horsepower diff between the orig dist and the petronix. The petronix gave me 25 more hp
and a lot more torque.
I am away on vacation and and I dont have the stats with me or I would print them

Not saying I don't believe you, as I could see a 5 or even 10hp gain/loss, but 25hp is a pretty big step...is adding the Pertronix the only change you made? What kinda shape was the points setup in??
