Pertronix Compatibility

Has anyone installed a Pertronix in a m180.945 engine? I can't figure out whether the 1864A or 1867A kit is the right one. The 1867A is $15 cheaper, so I would like to use this one if possible.

My distributor is a Bosch IFUR6 0231116048. The Pertonix site states that the 1867A is for Bosch 0231184001 and the 1864A is for Bosch 6 cylinder distributors.

Try contacting Pertronix. This guy was helpful to me:
