Good point about the alternator! I do have the best GM style alternator with out going to a bigger size. The guy at the alternator shop tested a bunch of them and gave me the best one. He was a car guy and when I showed him a picture of my Cobra, he wanted to give me the best he had.

My guage was showing that my alternator was charging at 14.5 amps if I remember right. The guage is accurate.

I hate to say this but I ordered a Pertronix distributor. It seemed like the right move for me. It is simple to wire and all I need to check is the coil to see if I need to add a ballast resistor or not. There are no points to adjust.

Under ideal conditions I'm sure the MSD out performs everything else but I have heat, vibrations and I might even have wiring issues. I'll save the MSD box and see if the factory might fix it for a small fee.

If the new Pertronix dizzy does what it is suppose to do I'll be happy. When I eventually get a high performance engine I'll give the MSD box another try.
