  Looking at a very nice Original 55 Merc except it has electronic ignition installed.
Exactly what it involved in that - good and bad.

  Should be fine. Many flat heads have been converted. My suggestion would be to determine the manufacturer and get a spare module.

  The good part is if the electronic fails you can always put the point style back in the car.
