Back in the day, my 67 would burn up a set of points in about 1500 miles. Never figured it out. Pertronix solved that problem. I had heard about the trick of the pink wire before I installed mine. So...I have no comparison with the lower voltage, but have never had an issue with the full 12 volts. Based solely on advise gleened from the VMF, I also carry the points in the trunk.
