    I'm just the opposite. I tried an Edelbrock one time, and broke down 4 miles down the road after putting it on. Coasted into a gas station, bolted the Holley back on, and cruised on down the road, never touched an Edelbrock since.

    You can get the Pertronix module and coil(pre 74 cars) at ebay for $30 if you are lucky.
