Edbert, when one builds drivers from the frame up, it is comforting to know the ignition is very capable of lighting-off the air-fuel mixture totally, up to about 90 mph. No matter what you may have read, MSD, HEI, TFI or any electronic ignition is NOT better below about 3000 rpm, depending on certain factors. I never had to help a points triggered ignition guy beside the road...but I have on several occasions, with cars that had electronic ignitions. An accidental touch of the wrong wire can kill a module. Fuel injection is better than a carburetor and electronic ignition is better than points, and that is a fact. The question is, is it always better? For me the answer is definitely NO! At 2:00 AM in Podunk Arkansas, in a 50+ year old car, with a modified engine, DEPENDABILITY is paramount. I will be 75 Oct. 4 and I am an ASE mechanic, also certified in "small engines", I have a degree in electronics, I am a federally licensed gunsmith, and I have built more cars than I can remember. Many have won shows and my 32 Ford coupe ran all over the southwest without trouble and was a feature-car in several magazines. It had a 289 with C4 automatic and points ignition. Points can be made better than stock with the best parts (cap, rotor, points, condenser, wires and plugs). Add a hot coil and with a well built engine, it will run great. OH, I still have a "Flip-Phone" and seldom use it because I still work and see no need to talk to someone every half-hour. After a very rich man saw my 1940 Ford coupe, he built me a 4-bay shop in my backyard so I could cars just for him.
