Points --> Elec. Ign. Common Place?

[Jay Quinn <jpquinn@cyberramp.net>]

Is it common practise for most to convert their breaker points system to
electronic ignition?  Is it also recommended to get a hotter coil to go with
it?   If so, how hot?

There does seem to be advantages to do so(Increased Horse power - no dwell
to keep resetting).  Even though, initially a bit more expensive, in the
long run, cheaper. 

What are some possible disadvatages?
