Electronic ignition
oldboy:
For's and against of electronic ignition. Does it warrant the price, do they run any better, are they trouble free or do I stick to points, (which have been trouble free, so far!) I've updated to modern rec/reg so just wonder if I should go the whole hog. Opinions please.

I've gone for fully electronic as my coils were shot. An advantage with points is its an easy roadside fix if there is an issue. Like modern engine management systems electronic systems are a black hole - diagnostics are specialised. If I had my time again I would stick to points with better coils if originals are below par.
