- There is a another option in the JC Whitney catalog. It uses a
- infrared diode and pickup for the point and rotor. There are slots
- in the cap, the width of the gap sets dwell angle. These run about
- $70 and you specify the engine, dwell etc.
- Anyone know if this system in any good. I am contemplating
- getting this for a 73 Jeep. Points are just to much of a pain to deal
- with.
