Ignition Contact Points Set manufacturing has mostly moved from the United States, Japan, and Europe to China and other low cost production countries. As this was happening, many ignition distributors were converted to electronic kits that eliminated the mechanical points set, reducing demand. So, finding a high quality supplier for these parts is becoming harder and harder. Legacy Ignition works with overseas suppliers to ensure that these products work as intended.

As shown above, points sets differ from factory to factory, while still adhering to the original specifications of performance. Things to verify with new suppliers are fitment, adjustability, spring action, points contacts, and pivot bushings. Although we may not get the originals anymore, we can still demand fitment and performance.
