I have one and it’s been great so far. Nice and simple set up. Just make sure you’ve got a large enough power wire going to it though.

Exactly what Baja Rooster said. Simple two wire hookup if you connect your tach. You can also order a pigtail online for under $10 to make it real simple to hookup.

Was a thread recently with a member who had bad luck with however I've used both pertronix and dui. Never an issue what so ever. Perfect for your basic engine/build. TBI rarely fails either however not the question you asked. I'd be running the pertronix if it wasn't for flip flopping builds. To be honest I regret selling however I ended up with Daytona sensors cd1 cause at my direction was SC at the time. Then reality kicked in and didn't wanna throw 900 plus hp at BW trans and ssm3 drives without spending a bunch of money. Regardless any ignition is a crap shoot and can have failures with the best of the best. Sometimes it depends who was on the line at the time.
