I have a question...when you converted to 12 volt what did you do for the coil?
Did you change the coil or add a ballast resistor?
A 6 volt coil requires a resistor when used with 12 volt and most GM coils require a resistor also.
Without a resistor you will eventually fry you points.
I purchased plug wires from Classic Chevy Truck parts.
Good Luck and Happy Motoring...
- A 6v coil in a 12v conversion will most likely not fry the points. I do not know how well that set-up will perform.
- A 12 volt coil in a 6v-to-12v conversion, and 12v coil in a natural-born 12v system, needs a ballast resistor (in the coil, or as an external ballast resistor). Without this resistor in the 12v system, the points will eventually be damaged/fried.
