Thanks folks!! What an education!!
So I've just installed the Petronix ignition set with a new 33000V coil. I had to do it outside in a COLD snow flurry at 28F and my fingers were freezn. But when that motor sprung to life on the FIRST try, I just got warm all over!! I brought it inside to adjust the sparkplug gap to .035 and am I ever glad I decided to do the Pertronix touch. Mind you, this is my first experience with these points and coil, but with the track record of this site giving reliable on-target advice, I'm sure that I'll get good performance out of this setup for a long time to come.
Thanks again for the advice!
