All Small Six Install Pertronix Igniter in 1968 6 Cyl Dual Distributor

[Alkraut]

I plan to upgrade a 6 cyl dual (centrifugal/vacuum) distributor with a Pertronix igniter. The correct Igniter is the 1261. I know the 1266 is for a Load A Matic .
Is anyone aware or any installation or "fit" issues for the 1261 in the 68+ 6 disty?
Can you provide a picture of the installed Igniter?
I am also planning to use the 3.0 ohm Flamethrower Pertronix coil and use a relay to provide 12 volts to the coil. Thanks

Well.... I went ahead and got the 1261 Igniter and was able to readily install it in the '68 6 cyl distributor. It did require a small amount of filing of the mounting edge that was adjacent to the vacuum advance arm. That allowed proper adjustment and clearance. Soft metal, and filed easily.
