This thread might be dead but...


Points can light quite a bit If you have any problems with your ignition drop in a later model electronic distributor. As for timing 22 degrees under boost will probably be safe to start but your initial will suck run the vacume advance to get some drive-a-bility back. What are you doing for fuel?

I used points as a triger with an msd with over 20 psi of boost. The cast stock pistons will work no problem with 6-8 psi....watch the tune though.
