Pinging

Sorry to hear you didn't make it. Was wondering ...

You might need someone with a distributor machine to check the curve. Getting the curve right can be like night and day. The best person I know for this does racing cars and is about an hour from Melbourne.
 
Whether the spark is triggered by points or by electronics, as long as the spark gets to the plug at the right time, I don't see how electronic ignition has any advantage.

It's when bushings or points are bad that people claim electronic ignition gives the engine more power after they make the change.
 
It is not normal for incorrect ignition to hurt a valve bad timing will kill a piston
