Guess I'm a dinosaur because I come from the old school of mechanical points and then the first generation of HEI Ignition systems. A bluish white spark was required to insure good spark to jump the gap on the spark plug. At the risk of sounding stupid could anybody enlighten me as to what this Pertronix is that all of you are talking about? It's been many years since I was a mechanic. John as for putting in old style points and condensor my first thought is make sure you have a ballast resistor ahead of the coil somewhere dropping the voltage from 12V to about 9V or else you run the risk of burning up the primary windings in your coil. JMHO.
