Thanks for posting that link, Jeff. That's a very good site, and appears to be about the best choice out there for an easy upgrade over the OEM units.

To answer his comment about a notch in the dist cap---------that notch lined up with the mount of the vacume advance mount.


The Accell dual point dist can be wired with a simple switch to either use both sets of points for dwell or wired separate to have the other set so as to have two timing points. I did this with my Ford dual points back in early 60s but the Accell made it much easier with there wiring methods

Personally, I like the GM HEI, and even mopar makes a version: I'm running it on my dodge 318. Although, the module does seem a bit delicate. I keep a spare in the glove box.
