issue with my distributor points on my 64 Dart

Yep, if it's a month old it should have at least a 90 day warranty.
You have to watch te store rebuild. They are also set up for a ten year or so spread of motors, usually curved kind of in the nmiddle of them so it could have stared life as a 360 and will fit a 273. I strip them when I get them for parts. That's the reason the numbers are shaved off the housing.
