The other day I wrote a glowing review of the unit that I have in my car, which came from Morgan Spares, recommended by those folks. Went out tonight and dug out the carton. It is the Pertronix unit.

A high woe rate for the Pittsburgh Morgans, but only pride was injured, thank goodness. Pete Olson's trike hit a water barrier on the left front when his steering failed (not sure why yet). Bill Ligh

I hope nobody takes you up on that electric oven idea, Jeff. All ovens cycle off and on, have contacts that open and close to heat up the element. Might make a hell of a bang. Better to stick it out
