I've always considered them an extra added attraction. The only complication is they occasionally need a maintenance buff to show off their hidden beauty . 8^) Jack E/NJ

Yeah, it's a good "fake-out". When we were high school kids, we used to buy the originals at "The Big Wheel" speed shop on Lake Street in Minneapolis, mount them on the outside of the stock distributors in our cars, and tell everyone we had a "Mallory Racing Ignition".
I think they were $3.85 back then.
While we were at it, we'd strip the paint off of the top tank of the radiator and hit it with that same "Brasso". That brass sure took a good shine, but became another maintenance item.
