'66 Malibu N/SA

I'm sure it was an EMI problem. Reminds me of when Dedenbear first came out with their analog delay box, around the same time period. I bought one, was unimpressed, and built a prototype digital delay. It worked great on the bench.

Not so much in the car, near the MSD 7. It went totally nuts! Lots of shielding and bypassing later, it worked okay. My intent was to sell them commercially but the car and the delay box project got parked as I got divorced around that time.

Anyway I don't think having such a problem with an analog ignition implies there would be a problem with the digital one. But I'll check into it.
