Not to mention like Cliff touched on, if Points ever did fail at any point in time, I can have a set in the car in 10 minutes on the side of the road. ..

When the pertronix were getting lots of press, I was tempted;
When really intrigued me was getting an electrinoc conversion with a built in adjustable rev limiter...
But I just kept running points.
I believe I commented something along the lines of what 'Jones said last year, and was scoffed at for it...
I'm glad I'm not the only one with zero interest in electirc ignition modules in my classic.
I actually pulled over on my drive to work this morning;
There was a 95-97 Trans Am on the side of the highway;
I think his ignition (opti-spark) was the issue - it would just cut out... He started and stalled three times while I was stopped.
dang electronics
