I have one in a Continental also. A F140 as I recall with the distributor in head. Also in my 1960 Deere 1010 crawler. Also in two Homelite-Crosley outboard motors. Also in my Ford 641 tractor. Also in my IH 3414 backhoe. Also in my Deere 300 wheel tractor. I would NEVER go back to points again.
There were subtle and overt advantages over the old points system. Note all mine are the standard-power Pertonix I kits. There are two other versions.

The more subtle advantage is smooter hot idling and better cold starting. I cannot say for sure whey better cold starting since all still have OEM coils. Maybe because of the rock-steady dwell-angle and elimination of the ballast resistor so the coil always gets full battery voltage when cranking (9-10 volts).
