True, but more for competition applications with modified, tuned engines
and high revs. For normal use the standard distributor will do fine if
in good nick, i.e. springs, balance weight pivots, base plate, vacuum
capsule.
In the end it will depend on looks (Lucas-Bosch) for some and/or the
price to pay for the restoration/repair of the existing unit (if
neccesary) plus the price for a Pertronix (ca. $100) or similar and the
price for the matching 123-Ignition (ca. $320, slightly more for pos.
earth).
