Title: Type II ignition
Post by: daveismissing on September 23 2018, 10:13:30 AM

Rich - I use one, I know Killer Dan had one in his stage car and a couple of other guys around here
It was thought to be the hot thing years ago, Spina then pointed out there was one less ground contact.Doesn't seem to matter

IIRC I just took a chunk of aluminum that was handy and made my own adapter.

I guess this is in reference to the big board and my questions. I was going to go hit a couple yards and see what I can find. I have coils so I would just need the module. And I guess I can just spend the money and buy a new one off rockauto. Just trying to see if there is a cheaper way than the expensive original type stuff.

Agree with Grumpy. For the guys on a budget here's the cheapass one. Beat on it like a seal pup last year and it worked just fine.
