To me it is an upgrade and I want people to know that I did it.  I like the 
mopar set up.

Pertronix on my cars!  There system is stable and reliable and forgoes R&R
of points in the correct distributor.  I have done points since the 70s when
I started driving and don't have a problem using or setting them.  I guess I
just got lazy in my older years!  I have not found a bad thing to say about
MoPar E I other than if your looking to have a period correct looking 62-65
or pre 71 car the distributor & box are just plain old out of place!!  I
know hide the box, but the wires going from the incorrect distributor to the
hidden box are a dead give away.

Reading all the threads over the last month on pertronix setup,
pertronix vs Mopar Electronic Ignition and the other pertronix threads
over the last little while.

Do you Run Mopar Electronic, Pertronix or Points??

I'm just curious how many on the list still run points like I do?  Am I
the last holdout with the old prestolite dual point setup?  I understand
why the conversion, hotter spark, no adjustment, etc.  But I've only had
to adjust points twice since we pulled the dart out of the barn in 2001.
