"Just 'eliminating' the points won't get you anything, so save your money."

Not quite true, a point eliminator kit (pertronix etc.) will eliminate the perioical need to replace the points and most of the conversion kits do switch the primary side of the coil off faster than points resulting in a faster and slighty high coil output.

If anyone is curious grab an electronics textbook and look up inductance and di/dt.
