Is there a purpose for this? I'm not trying to sway your mind the other way, but I was just wondering if there was a reason for doing this just besides the fact that you want to. I have a 1990 Plymouth Sundance with the Chrysler 2.5L TBI motor. I don't like Chrysler distributors from that era either I was mainly just interested in knowing if you were doing this for performance reasons or whatever..

There is no reason to want a distributor with points. They are inaccurate and a pian in the ass to maintain. I think you need to understand what you are trying to do.
