Ford module triggers on points opening, same as stock.

The secret of success is to use the remote one with the finned heat sink and put it in a cool place such as, beside the rad.

The ones attached to the distributor could overheat and quit.

I found one on a Ford Probe but they are also used on Aerostar vans and other models from the late 90s.

I know I've posted these before, but the Echlin and Standard listings follow, many of the #s are still correct and active. Why not print a copy off for yourself if you need the info.

Thanks for the good gen, Owen. I wish that I had half the information on hand as you do. (Thanks to this site, I guess I almost do!)

I put pertronix in my 1953 327 with delco and 12 neg ground car. Got the setup from Dwight Heinmuller. Am also happy with it.

If anyone is interested here is the page from a Delco Parts Book with ignition parts #'s. The second scan is the Packard Parts page from a 1965 Niehoff Parts Book.

I supposed we should try to get some of these transcribed into the Parts X-ref for easy fast reference in the future.
