GM resistance wire voltage?

Hello, I have a 72 Chevelle that im working on, I just got it running again, its got a big block with an Accel Distributor with the dual point design. I have read that the resistance wires are supposed to only get about 9.5 volts when running, but mine is getting 12.0. The battery is charging at 14.6 so it does drop, and the resistance wire is the same length as stock. I am pretty sure that running the higher volts will wear out my points prematurely, but should I do anything, and if so, what should I do? thanks
yes there are two wires going to the + side because its supposed to get full volts when cranking, that wire only supplies power when cranking and no other time. the resistance wire comes from the fusebox and is supposed to draw down the volts lower but I don't think mine is low enough

A resistor, or resistance, in the ignition system is there to provide a current limit to the coil. The greater voltage is of course going to yield a greater current. However, that is not what damages the points. The points damage usually comes from a capacitor (condenser) that is not doing its job optimally. Its job is to absorb the surges from the coil when the circuit is opened on the points in order to minimize any arcing. Arcs are what will deteriorate your points.

Keep in mind that with a dual point system, you are providing a more crisp dwell time, with the only advantage being that you get better performance at high RPM's.

I recommend a Pertronix electronic ignition module. It has the same form factor as your points, so it fits right inside the distributor. There is also a collar that has a magnet in it, and it slips right on the rotor. It's a great alternative, and you'll never have to worry about two things - replacing points every year or so, and worrying about the resistance wire. The unit has its own built-in current limiting resistor...
