We have become believers in the simplicity of the stock / Echlin ignition points system. It's simple, effective, cheap, and vary rarely causes us any trouble. We understand and have tested other points, ignition coils, and methods. We have yet to see any real results for our application. We've never had any problems with points moving and we check ignition timing continually with a continuity tester. All of our cams use a points lobe ground on the cam and our own hardened cam pin.
