Maybe I am completely off here but adjusting the points cam in the field shouldn't be necessary once it is set. Even if the points are changed, gapped correctly the timing should be very close.
When you state the electronic ignition doesn't have a spark rod, I assume the electronic ignition has a built in (digital) advance or is it a mechanical (centrifugal) advance? i thought about installing an electronic ignition but kind of like the original setup and adjusting the advance manually.
