I run points on everything after having tried Pertronix, Unilite and M&H. The M&H was the only one that never gave me any issue.

Some people complain about the "Wait to Start" Requirement on some conversion kits

"Some electronic ignition systems, like those using a lobe sensor, need a few seconds to power up after the ignition is turned on. During this time, the module is warming up and getting ready to fire the coil. If you try to start the engine immediately after turning on the key, it might not start because the electronic module isn't ready yet."

Interesting, in 53 years, I've never read or heard about a system like that. I have a Mallory Unilite conversion from 1976 that was in both my LS5 and 6 and it doesn't require any wait time.
Curious what brand of conversion is it you refer too ?
