Hey guyz
am looking to go electronic ignition in my 76 bus, type 4 with stock vac advance dizzy. Ive been looking round and cant find anywhere the difference between the accufire kit and the pertronix ingnitor kit (besides the price).

So why should i send the extra $40 and get the pertronix rather than the accufire? Is the difference really worth it?

Hi Edward,
I don't know their relative merits, but I'll be selling an "Empi Accufire" setup soon for $50, if thats of interest. In the interest of fairness, reply to the "For Sale" ad. that I'll put up tonight.
