Back in the fun days we ran them and like said we did it for max performance . We would Build a timing curve that would work for what we were doing . I played a lot with Mopars and Fords Ford had a Factory dist that had no vac advance that was used on the small block and one for the 427 Dual points were also used Mopar had a factory dual point for there engines .

I had a Complete SUN set up with the 102.0 scope and a 505 Dist. Strobe
