Would that really be a Vertex magneto that fits into the distributor
hole? They use Vertex mags on VW engines sometimes...


I think it was this beast that I read some very unflattering things
about, concerning reliability, about a month ago. It made me wonder
if I would want to depend on one of these while above the NC mountains.

Anyone else remember anything like that?


Especially considering there is only one of them...


True, but even the normal distributor goes dead when the battery goes
dead, so unless you have a charging system, the same thing could happen.
Mr. "Morgans" COULD move up to IL or IN to escape those pesky
mountains!
