Bill,
I learned about disconnecting the second set of points from the MSD web site
http://www.msdignition.com/, where they have instructions and wiring
diagrams, not from personal experience. Perhaps others have experience with
this situation, but I'd also recommend you contact MSD directly.
In either case, I'll be off line until Monday, leaving for Boston about now,
but no time on this trip to hook up with local FOT. :-(
