Petronix v original
My ignition has been changed over to the civilian petronix. When this is done, is the distributor itself changed or do they keep the original Bosch?

Pertronix module is installed into the original Bosch distributor after removing the points and disconnecting the condensor.

Re: Petronix v original
Which part are you talking about? The shaft of the distributor is the same. The points (under the cap) in removed and replaced with the Petronix ring and pickup. Then a new cap and adapter for that cap are bolted on. With the new cap comes new wires. With new wires comes new plugs. Factory coil is used.JimmyC wrote:My ignition has been changed over to the civilian petronix. When this is done, is the distributor itself changed or do they keep the original Bosch?
