Distributor: Single Point vs Dual vs with Pertronix vs....

Keep in mind this is part of my Get Running & Driving thread. The motor is an unknown. If I put a bunch of cash into accessories only to find out the motor needs a rebuild, then I might need a new direction. I'm in discovery mode, so probably answering my own question. Just need enough now to get everything running to evaluate the full drive train package.

Then depends on your skills, time, and interest in fixing.
I'd probably make a temporary repair to be sure the ground will not fail during engine testing.
Knowing a dual point will always have some value, I'd also talk with Halifaxhops before drilling out the rivet if thats what was needed.
But everyone is different. Do it the way you feel comfortable and makes sense to you.
