Distributor Pickup test

Thank you for the replies. As usual alot of good advice. I've done a lot of work on this cars electrical system. It was a total trainwreck before I started. Looked like an explosion in a spaghetti factory under the hood and dash. I relocated the battery to the trunk. I had some brand new 2/0 welding cable I used for the leads +/- to the front. All the grounds are good. To the block, frame, fenders, firewall. I deleted the original fuse block. Installed a new box for strait 12 volt on the front fender. Any switched connection now comes from the new box in the glove box. I did the amp meter delete and re routed new wiring bypassing the firewall connection. "Found that one on a link from this site." I got rid of any wiring that looked even a little bit questionable. All my connections are solder and shrink tubing. All the wires are sized correctly and tested. New blaster coil, new cap, rotor, reluctor and pickup. also lightened the springs on the mechanical advance. Tested the MSD by grounding out the leads - it thru a beautiful blue spark about a 1/2 inch across the tester gap. I did re check the distributor pulled it and used my brass feeler gauge. It's at .008. I'm getting good voltage to the MSD unit from the 12v and the switched side while cranking.
So I'm going to install the new pickup tomorrow give the spin it with a drill to see what I get for voltage as suggested above.
