I've been spending a crazy amount of time on the web trying to find out about the new Ignotor III which has both a rev limiter and multiple sparks all under the distributor cap. It seems too good to be true & I can't find much on the forums except a few references that it (sometimes) doesn't work well at idle.

Does anyone here have any real time experience with the new I3? I'm still running dual points and an old MSD 5 box & would love to clean up my engine compartment with an all under-cap option.

Hmm

If no one in this huge group hasn't tried the I3 yet, It may be too early to switch from my tried & true dual points!

I have the Ignitor II system on mine. I am happy with it. I didn't even know there was a III.
