Ah, that explains it. My 948 sounded good on the Mallory dual points and 
if I had nothing else to compare it to I'd be happy, but while driving 
on the long Watkins Glen Straight I switched back and forth to the crank 
trigger and heard it clean up, I was amazed. Further investigation with 
the timing light showed that as good as the Mallory is there is still 
some spark scatter. The timing with the crank trigger was rock steady. I 
didn't get to pursue more development with this on the dyno, but I could 
probably have safely put more timing in it .
