I am running points on my camaro. I ran across a points eliminator by accel the other day. How does it work and is it hard to install? Do I do away with my cap and rotor or does that stay the same?
The general consensus is that Accel products are kinda crappy. If it were mine, Id use a Pertronix kit, as they make a good product. They are very easy to install, just follow the directions.

Crane and Mallory both have there own magnetic pickups that replace points for the SBC. I'v heard good and bad about petronix ign components, sometimes there the only way to get rid of points ( ex, most rare/ uncommon engines, and 6cyl's ) and I'v heard if there installed wrong they will work for a short time then burn up, don't know the truth as I have never installed 1 ( Ignitor ), I may install 1 on my '67 200 6 Falcon, and get rid of the points.
Thats exactly why they burn up. People think they can just get rid of the ballast resister and go..Not so..You need it.........I have one in my coupe and 0 problems in 2 yrs. GlennK
