In which case the above statement would merely be lacking in accuracy and understanding. Man, this is like watching a liberal foist words into other people's mouths. I didn't say that I didn't have any point bounce, what I said was that I had no problems. And I believe that this may illustrate what everyone’s problem seems to be with this line of thought; you see, my point is NOT that points are a more precise or better way to trigger the MSD box. My point is that points are a reliable and still viable way in which to do this because most of us would never feel the difference anyway. Of course I know that your sensitive booty would pick up on those points in your distributor right away as you put on that second coat of wax! 
By the by old boy; the next time you feel like showing of that big brain you may want to use spell check.

O.K.,Steve-here's ignition 101 for you:
If points bounce/flucuate-dwell changes.
If the "block"postion changes-your dwell changes
If dwell changes-your timing changes
For performance minded people this is not a good thing
This is not a debate-able point-it is proven fact.
If you want the most from your engine,points are not reliable & proven.They are antiquated garbage that belongs in a museum sans 100 point show cars& the like .(Redundant-i know).
Who is this "everyone"?
And please shove your"sensitive booty" comment up your a$$.
