Pertronix replace only points, Crane add a external regulated signal. Both are good. Best is using a Pertronix plus a MSD red box (MSD5 for sedate driving, MSD6 for highway/eventual running). On my B18A I use a MSD5 with points (my dizzy are on good shape, no need of optical o magnetic points replacement by now), points remain good after near 2 years of use. Also, I you don't have a original coil, match the electronic ignition with a more powerfull coil (up to 28KV, I use a blue bosch, but mallory, crane and msd have ones with more punch).
