FWIW I would stay away from Pertronix. I had that in Jessica's blue bronco before I upgraded to the DUI cap and it gave me nothing but trouble. I had the ignition and their "flame thrower" coil. I will admit that I upgraded to the DUI at the same time I installed a Centech harness so it may have been other electrical gremlins causing my issues, but they didn't come up with stock equipment. Just my 2 cents.
I agree with Bill - check the gap in the points and plug gap. Are all of your wires nice and snug (good "click") on both ends? Did you use dielectric grease on your wires - I always do but too much isn't good.
