I have NEVER been totally let down by a points setup. I have had to dig into my under seat & glove box stash for a coil or condenser. HEI side? I've walked home or called for help a few times even with a new module in the glove box. Pertronix & Mallory Unilite let me down but only once with a GM HEI. I carry a complete distributer under the seat along with other likely to fail-hard to find parts for my 270 GMC. Points might take a bit more attention.
