'60 413 Tune Up Kit/ Single or Dual Points?

["Stevan Miner" <miner@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Jim,

That one should be equipped with just a single point distributor. If you ever want to eliminate the points and condenser, I would suggest installing a complete electronic ignition system. You can purchased this kit right from Ma Chrysler for under 200.00 bucks. Very easy to install and you wouldn't believe the difference it makes in starting and performance of your car. If keeping the "original" look is important, it's pretty easy to hide the electronic control box in the front radiator cowl area.

Hi All:

 

A question:  I'm getting ready to order a 'Tune-Up Kit' for my 1960 Imperial with the original 413 engine.  Bernbaum's catalog asks if the car has 'single' or 'dual' points.  Which is appropriate for a 1960 413?  All insights appreciated!

 

Sincerely,
