Default Re: 49-53 distributor

I had a Pertronix electronic conversion in the 8ba in my '39 p/u. No issues but I decided to try a Buba Chevy point distributor conversion with centrifugal advance, no vacuum. I've had no issues with it either. My thought is that either choice will be an improvement over a stock 8ba distributor. I don't know anything about the units that Charlieny does but if they are anything like the carb (and I'm sure they are) he redid for me then they are top notch.
