"What about adjusting the adjustable point block mounted to the upper plate ???"
Mitch -
I tried that. I filed one of the round "pegs" on the bottom pivot of the points block so that it could be turned more to meet the points. That left only one screw holding the points block from moving because the other screw could not be installed without also drilling out the hole on the upper plate. We were in a storage locker w/o electricity (or drill and bits), so that was not an option at the time. The points still didn't line up properly. Unless someone is into spending a couple hours modifying their original parts so that these improperly-made points can be used this one time, I'd advise against it. Once those points are used up, you'll be stuck with an irreversible modification that is half-*ssed at best.
The solution is not modification. The solution is to manufacture the points properly. Jeez, how complicated can that be from a company that makes these things for a living???
