I had a dual pint Mallory on my '66 Corvette and really can't say that it was an improvement over the stock Delco one points set up. It would rev easily to 6000 with either distributor without a hic up.


I would have to agree, with good quality points there is no problem.

Mal,
Your dual points set up is just a plate installed in the stock distributor. It sounds like someone replaced the whole distributor with a latter one.

Your options are:

1. Run dual points (no advantage in this application what so ever)

2. Find the stock ignition plate (or correct distributor by distributor # and application)

3. Remove the trailing ignition points, and run as normal single point setup. (yes, that will work)

Cheers!
