Re: New Distributer
In all my years, I've only seen one MSD distributor fail. I've always run them on my own cars without fail. I'd go MSD.

Re: New Distributer
I also feel the MSD is a good choice. Whatever you do, don't get a Mallory Unilite. I have that and have had a lot of trouble with it. I also ran the Hy-Fire 6 AL box for awhile. It was so undependable that I just replaced it with an MSD.
