Would a single-point distributor give up anything with respect to performance to a dual-point distributor for a strictly street/highway application? Thank you.
Sure. They are a better distributor, cast iron, and have a ball bearing advance plate. Also the points (in theory) last much longer, because one set closes the (electrical) circuit, and the other opens it. This means the times that the individual points are stressed is half that of single pointsWould a single-point distributor give up anything with respect to performance to a dual-point distributor for a strictly street/highway application? Thank you.
Yes, MP distributor that has the ability to adjust the advance without disassembly, MSD 6ALA dual point acts as a Multiple spark ignition if set up correctly with 8 lobes. I like the 4 lobe style by Mallory reduces point float. A single point is only as good as the points you install with good spring tension. But I would use one.
I hate mopar electronic control boxes. Very inconsistent from one to another. I would use a mopar electronic distributor but with a MSD 6AL or better.
I never saw that . Who makes it and where can it be bought,Www.designed2drive.com
Makes this nice little plate to attach a 4 pin HEI module to the underside of a mopar distributor.

IMO yes, but maybe not for the reason you think.Would a single-point distributor give up anything with respect to performance to a dual-point distributor for a strictly street/highway application? Thank you.
