FYI; Pertronix for flathead 6volt

Pertronix has just released an Igniter kit for the flathead Ford V-8 crab ('41-?) dist. They have them for 6 volt pos ground or 12 volt neg ground. These are for the factory crab dist. I just ordered two of the kits for my old Fords from Jegs, will give a drive report when I get them installed. To check them out go to www.pertronix.com then click on the NEW PERFORMANCE IGNITER KITS on the right column.

 

Forgot to mention, Jegs price is $92 each.

 

I'm not seeing it...the new products listing I find that way is for N series four bangers...help?

 

Any update on using the Ignitor kit for the 1939 through 1952 front-mount “N” series tractor distributor (kit #1247) on the early flathead crab distributor? I contacted a guy who is selling Petronix kits on ebay and he said the #1247 kit will work fine on the V8. I contacted Pertronix and they said they do not have a kit for the V8 but that the Pit Stop sells a modified Pertronix kit for the crab distributor: http://www.thepitstopgary.com/pricelist.html

Has anybody tried to make the 1247 kit work with the crab distributor or purchased one of the Pit Stop's kits? It can't be a very involved modification, they are only charging $30 more than Pertronix-
