Hello,  my early 80's ACC25B with a Continental F163 the solid state ignition box keeps going non functional (zapped).  There is Petronix distributor available to replace it all, but I'd like to keep it stock original is there an  ignition box  brand that is quality?  
I check all wiring all good nothing shorted.
Also what other options are there?

thanks,,,

I am not familiar with that particular ignition system, it may be helpful if you could post a photo of the distributor with the cap removed so we could see what type of reluctor and sensor/pickup it uses.

I posted 2 replies one with distributor other with the ignition module I tried to combine them but got an upload error.
Better view of pickup module,  looks like stock Prestolite???

the Petronix should be an UPGRADE... and "visually" you will not know the difference from stock... Why not Eliminate the old "ignition box" ?
Like them all, but love the "B"s.
