Yeah, I'm running a dual point Mallory distributor, mostly for nostalgia. I used to make little ignition system boxes that had a power transistor for people that had points, and I have one of those in the Olds. The transistorized circuit reduces breaker point current from several amps to milliamps, so the points don't pit. In fact, they develop a mirror-like finish and they never move so you don't have to ever fool with the points, it's tune-up free. This ignition works just fine for engines up to about 8,000 RPM.
