Speaking of that, what is the proper point gap?

I think I might go with the "big job" instead of removing the distributor.
I've taken the radiator out before, and even though it is truly a big job,
everything is accessible at least. And I can take the opportunity to replace
the spark plug wires and not route them through that steel pipe, which I
think is awkward. Any other things I might take care of while I'm in there?
