There is not a failure proof system nowdays. So I would stick with Pertronix yet for the easy conversion on stock look.
Points are a whole lot less failure prone than the offshore electronic crap being foisted on us these days.
The problem is the replacement points are offshore garbage now as well. You have to find an older set to get quality.
you treed me with your statement above about the offshore points available, which you most likely have to order as well.
last year [2019] i had a new, just installed set toss one of the contacts after just a few minutes run time.
back in the mid to late 60's, we always had a match book [even those are kinda hard to come by today !
] in the glove box to gap points on the road.
i have even gapped just the springs to get home !
that took a bunch of fiddling to do to get [semi] right [imagine doing this at night using your buddy to hold your zippo while you are fiddling with what is left of the points after you have had a "few teas" [
], but it worked long enough to get home.
