Thanks for the suggestion Eric and Mark. I'll definately keep the points and
conedsor, just in case. The funny thing I have noticed about these buses or
probably any old car is how many parts you accumulate. When I first went to VW
shows I was impressed by how many spare parts people have. I am now begining
this same build to critical mas. I am sure in about 3 years or less I will
have a parts war chest.

Since you are putting one in, my only advice is that you carry a spare set
of points and a spare condensor, because if that module goes out you're
screwed.
If you have spare parts you can just throw them in and be gone down the road.
