Regarding the Chrysler ignition modules. I read that they trigger on the points closing so you have to use a timing light to set the distributor position.
p.s. There are also a lot of schematics using heat-sinked GM HEI units. Again using the points to trigger or I guess you can use a YT sourced trigger. Anyway a lot of these will fire when the points have a little corrosion on them where a normal set up will not because they don't rely on the charge time constant of the Kettering system.
The problem with the real high energy systems is you need to make sure there is no carbon tracking under the cap and you need to make sure the rotor is contacting the button.
I ran into a situation with a friends Barracuda where either the cap was too tall or the rotor was too short. You also need to make sure the contact on the ignition rotor arm comes close to the contacts on the cap. Manufacturing mistakes do occur. I have seen them or the wrong rotor gets put in the box.
