I've used both Pertronix and CompuFire without any problem. The CompuFire was purchased from AirCooled.net in an SVDA distributor for my daughter's 74 Bug with a PICT-34 to solve the hesitation of a 009. It's a great setup and I have had no issues with either of them and it took care of that flat spot.
I do remember John Connelly (sp?) from AirCooled either posted or advised that CompuFire was purchased by another company and he was not pleased with the lack of quality control finding a number of faulty units. This has been some time ago so I don't know if this has been corrected but I did not find them listed on his site anymore, only replacement magnet triggers. He used to post on the list.
