<VV> Crane XR-700 Electronic Ignition

[John O'Shea]

Been running a Crane XR-700 in a 65 Corsa 140 for many, many years.
No dirt problems.  No other problems.  Easy to install.
There are many hundreds of problem posts on VV about Pertronix systems.
Don't know of any negative VV posts about the Crane system.
Pertronix flame suit on.
