Give me the numbers off of the Dizzy and I'll look in my junk box.I might
have a points plate.
I would just tap in the next size up and use a larger screw.The worst
that could happen would be that you might have to file out the slot on the
points to accept the larger screw.
Thats my .02

I would certainly find a slightly bigger(but no longer)screw because, is it not true that once you JB or epoxy the points down you could never get it out? So the life of the points is the life of the dizzy? And what about adjustments? Is this the borrowed dizzy?
How was the wedding, wedding boy?

I thought you were remodeling your kitchen?
The points screw goes into a fairly thin metal plate. You'll probably need to go with a slightly larger screw. No helicoil. Make sure the new screw is not LONGER than the original.
Or find a donor dizzy and replace the points plate.
