|
|
I have a 009 dizzy in my '67 squareback and want to upgrade from points to electronic ignition. I see the ACCUFIRE ELECTRONIC IGNITION is cheaper than some of the others, is it any good or are the more expensive ones that much better. |

as cheap as it is I would try it or the other ones available through big mail order companies. what is the chance that they actually did all the R&D and developed their own system, rather than just copy compufire? I bet it's made in the same factory, just different stickers. But I haven't tried it my only driver right now is 6v _________________ Stop dead photo links! Post your photos to The Samba Gallery! |

i have not used that one but i am using a pretronix in my 1600 dp and i love it. someone mentioned that when used with a 009 it slows the advance curve. not sure why and i have not gotten an answer yet but i do notice when going wot it seems a bit slow advancing maybe it is nore i am just not used to the extra weight of a type 3 yet. _________________ aircooled for life (1972 squareback cal look) |
