Ain't it the truth! Nostalgia is great, to a point. I dealt with enough points ignitions when I was younger. You know, where you stop at the store and come out to find the points managed to weld themselves together (GM Uni-Points seemed be the worst). I carried spare sets in my daily drivers for just such an occasion. I had no issues with swapping to electronic and would cut an old distributor up in a heart beat to convert it, if that was what it took to convert one.

Hey, if you're a true hot rodder, that's what you do, cut stuff up and make it better! That's what hot rodders have always done!

Thanks for the compliment, too. Glad folks are liking this.
