hey guys i was wondering if u all knew which system was better to run on a 80 4x4 1.8 stock.

a pertronix - if so what kind ( r there different models? styles? what kinda coil cap rotor etc... will i need to run?

find a 82 stock dist. and steal all needed parts? o yeah , what r those?

is there any other other styles or swaps u guys know of ?

which performs better makes more power easier to install ? etc....

I have the 82or83 up (dose not have the external igniter)and it was the best change i have done to my truck as it starts instantly and runs smoother.I installed the dist. set the timing and set the plugs to the later specs.
