351m

I would like to know if the 351M can be converted to points or if there is a points distributer that will interchange?
Thanks,
Bob

Yes, but that is the WRONG thing to do. Early 70's 351C and 400 points distributors will work. The DS-II system is the best ignition system, is simple to use, and will outperform the points systems, -not to mention maintenance and fuel economy issues.

Painless wiring makes a Duraspark II harness. Go to their web site and search for part no. 30812.

If you decide to get a new distributor, consider our custom curved Duraspark Distributor built with our new Full Length Oil Impregnated Bronze Bushing. The full length bushing improves timing stability and spark scatter. If stock appearance is not an issue, take a look at our one piece D.U.I. Distributor. Whether you choose the Duraspark or the D.U.I., we curve each on a distributor machine based on your engine combination. Please see them at:
