Hey Jed,

My mallory dizzy in the Deuce, altho it has 2 sets of points, is not really any more of a hot set up, by itself, than the stock GM. Each set of points just alternate taking the spark from the coil. It is mechanical advance only. The dizzy has just one condenser for both sets of points. The benefit is longer lasting points (theoretically lasting twice as long). I believe my Mk II coil that I use with this dizzy is a bit hotter than a standard GM coil, though. What I have learned of most recently is about the rev/pol dizzy and coil. My understanding is this dizzy has 2 sets of points also but, they each fire at the same time and produce a more intense spark at the spark plug as a result. There are TWO condensers on this dizzy - one for each set of points. I have tracked down an nos YC-310 rev/pol dizzy (with two brass external condensers) and I will continue to look for a Mallory rev/pol coil to mate to it. This should be a noticeable performance upgrade. BTW, the rev/pol dizzies and coils are a bit more rare and expensive than the standard stuff. I will save this for a future day two project to be named later!

I think there is a Mallory switch for the cockpit that allows you to switch the polarity of the coil for street/strip use, but am not sure exactly how this works.
