Which gives the slant a bigger power boost, HEI conversion or the petronix? I just installed the petronix along with an accel coil and man did it wake up my slant. Now I want more power :twisted: will the HEI conversion do this for me?

You must have had a real crap ignition, I don't think either Petronic or HEI will increase HP. They will give a more dependable spark.

I wouldn't use the Pertronix as I can't buy parts for it in BFE when it craps out.
