I wouldn't lose any sleep over running a mechanical regulator with the electronic ign if you don't have one. I've ran several ignition conversions without changing to electronic regulators with zero problems.

Thanks for your thoughts. Nonetheless, I’ll have an electronic VR here by next Friday to go along with the ignition kit. Shaping up to be a busy weekend, I’m happy to say.

Best of luck with it. I'm sure it will serve you well.

Is this the marine-rated ignition box you’re talking about?

Do you mean an entire wiring harness? Or is there a part/part number specifically for retrofitting an electronic ignition for our C bodies? (Yes, my ignorance is strong, which is why I seem like I ask goofy questions sometimes.)

Given the responses, it really sounds as though either I may be better off looking at the more OEM-type updates than running to the shinier aftermarket solutions, like the one I mentioned in my original post. It also sounds like there’s a lot of reluctance to do anything other than that, which is okay, too, since those things have proved themselves worthy in the past.

I do need to buy one of your electronic voltage regulators though. I can’t even find a part number in the one the last owner installed. It just says, “Japan” on the casing. Ha!

Yes, this is the marine rated ignition module I referred to. It should give you a hotter spark and a slight improvement in power.

Mopar performance makes a harness for the distributor to the ignition module. The part number should be within my listing for the ignition module.

I think Fury GT sells those and they are an electronic unit that looks just like a mechanical one for a stock appearance.

Yes I do. I am getting low on stock - 4 left. Search ebay for seller "furygt" and you will find my items for sale.

Bought one from you yesterday afternoon. So now that’s an electronic ignition kit from Rick, a VR from you, a set of new KYB shocks, and a set of spark plug wire looms all coming in later this week. Gonna have ourselves a busy weekend I think.
