I drive a 62 Chevy pickup with a standard 235 c.i. six engine. I continue to have points which seem to work just fine but wondered if a higher voltage coil would benefit my truck in any way? I replaced my coil a couple of years back with a cheap one made in another country and wonder if a higher performance would make any difference? Thanks for any thoughts!!

It would but you will need electronic ign. There is nothing free. The increase will put more load on the points & probably burn them. If you are going to run points I would keep the standard coil.


They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.
