George,

This might be a good time to try out the 75' electronic ignition setup that came with one of my parts cars. It appears complete with black box, dizzy and wiring harness. It is not doing me any good just sitting on the shelf.

Upon further thinking, we presume the issue may be related the points melting due to an aftermarket coil that was recently installed that requires a resistor. I noticed today that it did not have one after I saw the note written on the side of the coil that it required a resistor. Our first step is going to be to add the appropriate ballast resistor to the coil and see if this remedies our problem. Sounds logical if its getting too strong of a spark that the it would cause the points to melt, right?

I will also check for play in the distributor shaft and report back.
