Thanks, I did wonder. Use it or not? Currently still got a points set up that works fine. Also note the above dizzy has no vac advance. .and the reluctor gap shows clear daylight compared to a correctly set OEM electronic dizzy.
More technical reviews of Skip White distributors here: cheap HEI distributors
Highlights include: The end-play, as out of the box, was 62 thou, a bit much.

My observations so far, 'junk'.
