Another Datsun Nut

Am I wrong to think that *IF* a EI were to fail, it would be more likely to find a replacement igniter for a DB EI than a pertronix? With the DB you'd have possibly dealer, parts house, or wrecker to find a replacement matchbox.

If you got it from Dave then it's covered with lifetime warranty

Have 3 ignitor at home that I gathered several years ago when I did EI on my 510.
But switched to Pertronix cause it's very difficult to find those EI distributor.
Someone always get's it before it even hits the yard.
My guess is yard employee takes them first.

No contest on the EI kit
Pertronix will just be the limited budget route but still works provided all components are good.

Well, one of the advantages of Pertronix is you can convert back to points in about 20 minutes, or carry an extra breaker plate, couple of screws and back on the road. Oh, and if anyone has extra Nissan matchbook modules, I'll definatly give a nice credit toward any purchase, or buy them outright.
The distributors are getting harder to find, some guy in New Jersey cleaned out most of the Northeast.

Are these the black box you're looking for?

That's the ones. It should say E12-80. There is another version with a second 2 wire plug on the side, they are NG.
Either the modules or whole distributors are appreciated.
