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.

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.
