electronic ignition upgrade

[sailingseven]

I have a chance to pick up a new in box pertonix electronic conversion kit and flame thrower coil for $75 from a fellow boater in our area. He bought it at a marine supply in Erie for his AQ131A and then decided to sell his boat. What are you thoughts on this type of change to aq131A?

Thanks for the link. I picked it up tonight. Figure to install in the spring.

I've put them in 2 engines.
They have worked flawlessly for me and I love them.
I just installed a new mercruiser engine and am seriously thinking about taking out the electronic ignition that is in it and replacing it with a pertronix.
