I run Mallory tach drive/dual points in both the wagon and black car. The black car is a crab cap to clear the blower.
The wagon has a Unilite conversion/6Al in it for years now. The black car runs points and an old 6Al box. Both work fine.
Most of the issues with electronic conversions is they need a full 12v. Running them off the pink wire will burn them up.

Frank: Checked yesterday and found 4 Tach. Drive Mallory's.
Could drop one off in a few weeks. $125.

Thank you for the offer, Richard but, I'm going to stick with my FT dist, in part, because I want to use the FT oil pump and drive.
I'll convert it to Duraspark or Pertronix. I just missed Randy's dual point plate, off his broken dist.
