The points do last forever when hooked to the MSD. One thing to note is if you go MSD and a more powerful coil you can carry a resistor and if the MSD box fails it's super easy to dissconnect it add the resisitor and run the car home on points.

It's all under the stock cap and what I will hoepfully, maybe, someday use on the convertible. -- Mark Price Morgantown, WV 1969 AMC Rambler, 4.0L, EFI, T-5 2004 Grand Cherokee Laredo, 4.7L, Quadratrc II " Chronic Pain Hurts" -------------- Original message ---------------------- From: JOE FULTON <piper_pa20@xxxxxxxxxxx> > I'd say the pertronix is the easiest and most common > swap on the old Delco distributors.
