I think it is sort of dubious to add an expensive
electronic ignition in attempt to fix a poorly-running
engine, without first proving that the distributor is
the cause of the problem. With the number of miles
put on most Spits, the points and condenser should not
need attention for several years, so the reduced
maintenance of an electronic ignition does not really
matter much.
That said, if I decided to get one, it would be the
Pertronix. I would avoid anything that required an
extra box and wires- more things to go wrong.
