Hi guys,
I'm new here. I did a search for the Mancini kit and this site came up with no results, so I thought I would ask you knowledgeable people.
My '78 Monaco is a 318 with the Lean Burn and it's having such erratic performance I am going to bite the bullet and replace the Lean Burn system with what a friend has recommended to me, the Mancini Electronic Ignition kit, link below...

I have been doing a lot of reading and research and the one thing I've found is that there are no reviews on this kit, and I was wondering if any of you fine people have done this to your vehicle? Really, I'm hoping it's the right move. Any information would be greatly received, and I thank you in advance!
Note: Symptoms are erratic idle sometimes, stumbling on pull-away sometimes, bad cold start up (I know that's a choke issue) and poor power. Once she's warmed up, runs good over 10mph.
Note 2: I have a non Lean Burn 2bbl carb to replace the factory one.
Note 3: I am not going for horsepower, I want smooth reliability.
Thanks guys. Best wishes, a Chrysler newbie!
