     Thanks. I just got the Crane, but I'm thinking of returning it to 
     eliminate the Crane box in the engine compartment. Did the ignitor 
     fint under the distributor cap no problem?

I have put an ignitor in my 250 just last year. I can notice a differance 
in the way the car runs. But the biggest differance is after the car sat 
for two months that it fired right up. When I just had the points in the 
car, it wouldn't start right off the bat.
But with the ignitor it fires up quick. It was also a sinch to put in.
