is it worth going with a msd electronic ignition distributor or just leaving it with points?
less time spent checking points and condensers

re: electronic ignition
A lot of guys (me included) use Petronix. It bolts right in and runs around 80 bucks.

re: electronic ignition
I'm the black sheep here. I had a pertronix II and while it worked, it was great. When it died, however...it left me good and stranded just outside of Brooklyn, WA on the Raymond side.
Next day, I went back to points and just carry a new spare set in the glovebox.
