The absolutely most reliable ignition system?

[Roppa440]

using a Mopar dist the only difference is 2 wires instead of one coming out for points

There is also a price difference between a conversion kit and a whole new distributor.

mmm... Magneto's are pretty reliable. And no issue with rpm's

I don't intend on Hijacking this thread, only promoting discussion. The Question is for Roppa440 about using a Mopar electronic distributor and a GM module. I have one of each of these on hand, and don't have any knowledge of how to blend these together for use in a 68 charger (which I assume came with a points ignition.) Could you provide a diagram (hand drawn or whatever) of how to put this kind of setup together?
 If this could be done in a clean fashion, it may be a solution for the stock setup, and maybe more reliable.

I refer you to my earlier post. The HEI modual. A $25 part for a complete and powerful ignition system.

I believe it's pronounced "Module"...

Nice simple diagram!

Just make sure you mount the module (thank you Cooter) on something that will act as a heat sink.

Sorry, off topic: BTW Roppa, I went back to look back at pics of your car.  Looks wonderful.  Wish I had the money for it!

  Thanks for the info guys. That looks pretty simple, and if it makes the ignition more reliable, thats a bonus....

Having seen Dave's car in the flesh I can only say that it is a very very nice job.  The interior, the body and the paint really are truly outstanding and although I haven't ridden in it I also know that he has put a massive amount of work and money into all the right places on the mechanical side of it and with an enviable attention to detail.

Very kind of you to say so!
