Pertronix (and 5 or 6 speeds)
I got rid of my points this week and installed a Pertronix unit (the one without the magnets.) I checked the dwell afterwards and it's at 24. With points it's suppose to be 28-32. Does anyone know if this is correct. The reason I'm asking is that I'm running at 200* now at the themostat, up from 190*. This is at 70 on the highway. Timing is the same at 8*. It took a lot of time and work to get it down to 190*. Any thoughts?
