These springs were so strong that normal tension would have been achieved by just letting them sit against the side of the coils! As for the spring length, there is a dimple in the copper colored clip that is supposed to sit in a hole in the point set’s stationary piece. Side ways or from the top, there was NO WAY that was going to happen without grinding them off. And yes, it was an OEM box. I will have to check whether it was new old stock OMC or BRP. Not sure about that, now that I think about it. They WERE the goldish color and came with a wiper, as is the custom with OEM points. They were NOT just Sierras that somebody stuffed in a box. Sierras are silver.
Long live American manufacturing!
