Electronic ignition upgrade

I'll throw my 2 cents in. You're not gonna add power to that slant (or really anything) as long as the point type ignition is in GOOD SHAPE.

So, why not learn the points system, discover how it works, learn to tune it. Get it in good condition. Points have been around for a hundred years in millions of vehicles.

In all honesty, electronic ignitions ain't "much" of an upgrade from a good workin points ignition.

That way, you actually learn somethin, fix "WHAT'S THERE" and spend less money.

I don't know.......sounds pretty good to me.

I would love to have you in my shop and argue that statement with you, are you still waiting for them to perfect the color TV before you abandon your old round screen black and white one?
You can't even buy good points anymore they're all Made in China and the contacts are now plated about .002 thick not solid tungsten any longer, so where do you even buy good points sets? For every .001 of wear you will retard timing by 1* they last about 1500 miles and they're done. Ever measured the output under load on a points system?
