Title: Nobody uses Berg/Stinger ignition box and distributor anymore? Post by: Jim Ratto on February 08, 2008, 21:30:59 pm I don't see any guys talking about running the old Berg ignition on their motors? Bates, you ran one didn't you? I don't remember you ever being left stranded because of it.
I remember Gary's '67 had one, but all I did was plug it back in, when I put motor back in car (1994). What was the advance curve on those? Could you lock them out?

I bought an Stinger S1 couple Time ago, to try it on a friends Car but it never happened as he left us way to early... Frank Title: Re: Nobody uses Berg/Stinger ignition box and distributor anymore? Post by: stealth67vw on February 09, 2008, 01:06:48 am Yeah, I had the Stinger S4 from Eric Ballard's (ERCO) SS/CX sedan. I loved it. When I lost it, I almost became violent towards my ex wife. I have a drinking problem instead. ;D Much cheaper than sitting in jail.
