    I have just received my Pertronix Ignitor 2 and flame thrower 2 low resistance resin filled coil dorect from an american seller. Cant wait to fit it this weekend
    (i was able to purchase the ignitor and coil from an ebay seller direct from usa for far less than the aussie dealers. AND he sent the right one the first time, which is straight away better than the aussie dealer my mate used!! PM me for dealer name)
    Great to hear mate! Good luck with fitting it on!!! I found out I'm up for 850 bucks for a new head on my troll today, gotta love them.. Well love to hate lol.

    Im all for that too but quite simply they are just an import company, they buy the EXACT SAME product (id bet from the same place i did) and put a little on top to make some money. Yep they keep three people in the job but really, in the end its like me importing a heap of them and reselling. AND they sent me the WROMG DAMN ONE then took about ten days to fix the problem. So; for price, service, speed and getting the right part first go, unfortunately the amercian seller was better.
