Jeff - Still puzzled about the statements that your distributor's cam is worn smooth. These cams do not have sharp edges, they have a slight radius on the top of the cam. Here is a photo of the cam from my 37 Six. Quality is not good, but you should be able to see the rounded edges. The 8-cylinder distributor cam's edges are even more rounded. Your cam would have to be almost round in order to no longer operate the points opening and closing actions. Good to hear the bushing and shaft are in good shape. I think your cam is okay. You probably do not need an electronic kit.
