Ghost,
take a look at Daytona Sensors. I plan to experiment with them for my next buildup.

I looked at the daytona sensor CD-1 ignition. I like it and it comes with a matching coil. It seems more capable and not too much more money, $50 or so. The thing that bothers me about the msd is the reviews, half the people love them, the other half call them junk. That the internet for ya I guess....

A note about Daytona Sensor products. The company was formed by former Crane employees from the days when Crane was in the ignition business.

The bad reviews I saw were on the ignition boxes. I'll be buying an MSD distributor and the Daytona sensors CD-1

Not surprised at the reviews for the boxes, the new digital boxes are made (where else?) in China, distributors are still made here.
