hi
why does everyone think they have to have electronic ignition ?
i do a fair amount of dist rebuilds , and recurves for performance / race engines . < have sun and allen dist tester>
i have some points dist that have been in use for 10 years , driven on weekends regulary and never been back for readjustment .
points are reliable ! must be properly installed !
single points easly run 6000 rpm plus , doul points 7000 .
chrysler and others accel / Mallory ect offered points for higher rpm 8500
just sayen !
New points and condensers have the same issues as an other new part these days, poor quality. Put new points in my 51 2 years ago, I have maybe 1000 miles on it and the rubbing block is worn out already. NOS is where it's at because it isn't going to get better and since no new car has come with points in a long time no one is going to step up to build quality stuff.
