Duel point dist. ????

I'm with Jim. I aim for 28* dwell seperate, and a total as low as possible. (less dwell means more time for the coil windings to "soak" before firing)
Wrong, more dwell, more time for the coil to build energy. Dwell angle is the amount in distributor degrees that the points are closed and the coil receives energy. FYI, this isn't meant to dis anyone, just to straighten out an often misunderstood yet important facet of tuning.
