Now when I look them up I see Accel shows with the vent also. I want a point type/electronic cap not dual point. Found NOS out there but they don't even have the brass terminals and are crazy money.

I just have one NOS tan Cap with the brass insert for that stock look, but there are plenty of black caps with brass inserts that function just as well. 1971 HEMI E BODY REGISTRY
