from what I gather, the Pertronix kit WILL through your timing off.
SO... yuuo install the kit, then re-time back to factory spec., and all
shoud be well...

I'm installing a pertronix ignitor and coil in my 165 mercruiser (250 ci
straight 6 chevy). For those of you with experience with pertronix, did
your target timing setting change? I set my engine to 6 degrees BTDC
now, but am wondering if I need to set it to 8 degrees BTDC or more with
the pertronix installed. Any info would be appreciated. thanks! Chris
