Would changing the dual point system on a 76" spider to a Petronix or similar, affect smog testing in CA? Would the car fail due to the component alterations? Tired of dealing with points!

Re: Changing to pointless ignition?
it depends on the individual inspector. Most smog techs don't know what a Fiat should look like under the hood

The Pertronix is CARB legal.

Re: Changing to pointless ignition?
The pertronix module fits within the distributor cap, so it isn't noticable. I don't think it will make any difference in a smog test.
