Guess you're one of those people who the marketing guys talk about when 
they try to convince companies to get it right the first time, since for many 
customers there is no second chance. I've had nothing but good luck with them 
in my MGA race car and street Healey, and know that their record of 
successful installs is now 99 to 1 in favor of the product. But if points are 
working for you, and you enjoy the idea of maintaining the lost art of adjusting 
the points every thousand miles -- and, seriously, there's nothing wrong 
with having a little chore to do in the garage that most people don't know how 
to do anymore -- then you're in the right place for you. 

Best
Gary
