The gap changes timing. Start with .020 then put a dwell meter on it.  adjust until 28-32  Dwell. Set timing then.

Thanks. I Knew About The Conversion Kits . Just Trying To Get It Running Now.I'm Thinking The Fuel Pump Is Bad It Will Idle Fine But Sputters With Throttle In Any Amount. Wouldn't Even Start Before I Changed The Points And Condenser.
Thanks,

Accell pump and power valve diaphrams in the carb like to get hard and brittle. Might be your sputter.
