..BUT GET RID OF THE BALLAST RESISTOR  ...
If you do this, buy a repo or make sure you have a spare original in case you want to return to points, or do a full on resto some day. oe resistors can be hard to find.
If the OP does the #10 resistor wire in a replacement ballast, saves his "original" ballast, throws the points condenser and ballast in the glove box, if he has an issue with the Pertronix, it's a simple swap back, even on the roadside to get the car under way....that being said, I've been using the Pertronix conversion kits since the late 80"s, and have NEVER HAD ONE FAILURE of any Pertronix component, and I've done quite a few customers, friends, and my own rides with the conversion kits, but like anything, it's all about choosing the proper components, and a competent installation
