JB's knowledge today takes me back 'DECADES'!!!!
Never even got concerned w Dwell & Dual points in M&M car.  ( forget, but seems like used a Mallory HEI type dist ) Just never had an issue.  Top RPM was 7,500 (540 ci / 800 hp)  Seldom ran above 6,800.  6,300 was an easy 196 mph...& ran real smooth & comfortable there.

Searched memory.....been 40+ years since I even had a Dwell Meter .  But used it religiously back then!!  Especially on race Honda engines that went to a little over 10,000 rpm's!!!
Sooooo much more important, easier & precise than just a feeler gauge.

YUP: JB 'Sharp as a Tack'!!!!

ME: a much older, rustier version!!!
