Uhhh, if you are "converting" over to the old-style point ignition, rather than using a Pertronix-style that eliminates points, or continuing to use the original transistor set-up, then you will need a condenser to avoid point burning. It is only omitted when you are using the original transistor set-up. You will also need to ensure the point plate inside the distributor is properly grounded and the right coil and ballast resistor are used to match the point set up.
