I've neglected, I think, to relate what was found finally. The MSD coil overpowered the Pertronics and damaged it because of no ballast resister. I called pertronics and they told me to use their coil or put a resister in line. I bought their system then took it to Troy at Modern Automotive in Phoenix (he's closer than B&R) and everything is golden. Runs great. Apparently some spark isn't enough in some cases. Whew!
