Something that I remembered after reading more on this is how Bill Jenkins used to retard his timing in high gear years back when he ran a points dist. He would cut out one set of points so in high gear and high rpm he retarded his timing. Seems he used alot of advance down low but took some out up top to mph better. I have heard of others doing that also.




Ron, A prestolite dual point has one wire going to/from it that triggers the coil.

How would Jenkins take out a point set on the top end?

Would you add a second wire to one point set to open or ground it with a toggle switch?

Sounds like a good experiment for me to try as I run a prestolite dual point and am always looking for free MPH!!

Ideas for execution anyone?
