First post in 6 years LOL. I have a 1979 Sea Ray SRV 240 with a Mercruiser 260 and I am going to be working on it to get it back to sea worthy. I wanted to upgrade the factory points style ignition system in it. I talked to my local boat shop today and the mechanic said that it couldn't be upgraded to an electronic ignition. Is this true? He said it had something to do with the alpha drive in my boat causing issues with switching into gear after making the switch to electronic. I know I have heard of people upgrading to an electronic ignition in similar year sea rays with the same motor but this boat mechanic says this will cause problems.
Any info would be appreciated,'
