While I have you seasoned Wizards on the line. Can anyone tell me what this ignition system is? I can't find any sort of mfg. or numbers anywhere. Is it any good for use in a boat? I do know the bracket that hold it up in place sure seems flimsey.

No expert, but the distributor is a Mallory and appears to be a unilite (photo optics type). If it were a points type the condensor is normally mounted on the outside of the housing.
The coil looks like an Accel that's been painted over (normally yellow). Accel advertises this particular one as being used with a points type distributor. If your dizzy is a unilite it doesn't use points.
Not sure what difference it would make (if any).

I had one of these on my boat when it sunk. It worked well after too!!

Thanks Dan for chiming in. This is all a mystery configuration to me. I took this photo of the inside of the dist. It is a Mallory, label was on the back side.

Can't find a single marking on the coil.
How's the knee today?

I guess if it could have been painted orange at one time, I can paint it BLUE when I'm ready.
Greg your distributor is a Mallory YL with what I'm pretty sure is a "Petronics" conversion trigger Tom the guys are correct the coil is/was an Accel super coil and yes the epoxy and original "mounting will crack/break under vibration I remade my bracket a little beefier Tom

I've been looking for a reason to fire up my furnace and cast some aluminum. This looks like a fantastic bracket to pour, and then anodize dark blue. Also, another good excuse to get my CNC mill built and operational.

If you see some mistakes let me know. I've got to get started one of these days soon. I've got to get away from this black taped crap as well, it's oil soaked and so darn goopy it's a mess.
