Distributor earth lead

[cl4rk2@worldnet.att.net]

On my '69 B/GT, inside the distributor the bare copper "earth lead" on
the moving contact breaker plate looks really fragile and thin.  I often
wonder if it will cause a weak spark at the plugs.  Should I take the
time to replace this wire w/ another thicker wire.  It appears that one
end is soldered and/or stamped onto the breaker plate.  What do you
suggest here?
