Plus 3 or 4 for stock points distributors.

Over the past 20 years I've come to hate aftermarket HEI's, and all types of points "conversions". I could put up several hundred pages of stories here where I helped customers correct "carburetor issues" by correcting their DISTRIBUTOR/IGNITION problems.

Points a re simple, reliable, and excellent for performance work. Even better you can put a set of points in your distributor, set the dwell, then remove them and put them in the glove box with a headlamp and screwdriver. Install a second set and go have some fun. If the first set every gives you any issues you will be back up and running in less than ten minutes.......
