...concerning the Petronix ignition? There is one on ebay for $72. Is it good? Is this a good price?

I have one on my 259 '55 President 4dr and really like it. Quicker starts and better gas mileage. One quirk is that you should turn the ignition key on for a few seconds before starting the engine. Also the hotter coil is highly recommended. You must also buy the specific one for your application. ex. V8 or 6 cylinder, 12 volt or 6 volt. I bought mine a few years ago from Ted Harbit and I think is successor now handles them.

No problems with just making normal "on" motion with mine. No hold time required.
5 years, many miles, no problems.Check the Jegs or Summit catalogs for current prices.
