Any new dope on electronic ignition for a 1957 Poly 315? I was thinking Pertronix, but that's not set in cement.

I believe the stock distributor is a single point Autolite IBP4002 which isn't covered by Pertonix. However, there are some dual point units listed in their catalog--and I've got an old dual point conversion kit for my distributor made by Renberles Products. This particular unit is called a Dyna-Flyte Model 538-D and contains, "The Original Ball Bearing Distributor Plate." Maybe a Pertronix would drop right in with this new plate?

The other option is an IAZ4001 from, to the best of my recollection, a 1953 Hemi of some sort. Any idea if that fit in my 57 W200 and if there's a Pertronix for it?

The level of Dodge knowledge here is remarable. Thanks in advance.
