RE: ignition for my 390gt

I believe the old technology of dual points was to extend the dwell by overlapping the opening of the sets of points a few degrees apart, and running the points in series. This offered a little longer time for the coil to saturate, thereby making the spark hotter. This was possibly needed on high compression motors in the 60's to get good combustion. I don't think it'll make much difference with today's CR's of around 9/1. As always, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

This thread, so far...
