Default Re: Petronix for 305E?

I have a '65 with a 305e and used the 1162A with the Flame Thrower Cell and thus far it work very well. I have not taken it on an extended trip, but have had it at various speeds including the freeway. I do note that it seems to start much easier with very little choke and idles smoother. No doubt the points it replaced were not perfect. Anyway I am a happy truck/camper without the need to routinely adjust points. Since the new parts are readily available I am not going to carry a spare on an long road trip next summer. I have spent several weeks in a garage in past trips and enjoy carrying my home on the truck:-)
