Jacobs Ignitions
Do the Jacobs Ignition systems control the advance curve? If so how and if not what does? Also Any comments on the system good AND bad
Does anyone have any contacts on retailers who sell them?

The distributor still controls the advance with the jacobs ignition. I have been using them for years with Mallory Dist. and have been very happy with them. Your best bet is to get it directly from them I believe they are in Texas and will sell to you over the phone. They do exactly what they claim.

A few years back I purchased two complete systems. I was impressed with their concept and thought they would be the ticket. After swapping out two modules that failed I made them refund my money....just didn't work out. During the lst failure the motor was breaking up mid range and up and Jacobs maintained it couldn't be their module. I went back to stock system and motor was again normal. They then agreed to replace module but wanted to charge me a prorate. I supposedly had a "lifetime" warranty originally. That was when I decided I didn't need their systems any longer.

You guys are CRAZY!!!
Hey Bobby, I've had my Jacob ignitions for 101 years and they haven't failed me yet! 
Yep!---I think I'll just run right out and buy another Jacob's ignition system as a back-up! 
As Foghorn Leghorn would say; "Now ya know----I,....I say now ya know I'ma just a messin' with yo head now donchya son?"
