I've had a LOT of trouble with a 1981 Mopar electronic ignition. Module failure. Expensive replacement. I was warned by a former dealer mechanic that I'd have problems. He recommended that I carry a spare module, which I now do.
I've had some issues with a Mallory system on a 1972 Ford V8. I wouldn't exchange a good stock system for an electronic system without a compelling reason. Issues with stock systems can often be addressed on the roadside. My experience with electronic systems is that they may fail suddenly and completely.
