Did you mean to say if the contact betwewen the distributor housing and the block were bad that would NOT cause a misfire?

Does there need to be clean contact between the dist housing and the block?

I have a pertronix ignition so there is a wire to the positive side of the coil and one to the negative side of the coil from the igniotion module
