I think I am going to get a CD iginition system.

There is a bunch to choose from, some require other parts to be changed out like tach adapters, coils and rotors.

MSD
You need to buy RPM rev limit pills, heard that you need a HD rotor and a tach adapter. I have heard the tach adapters aren't a 100% guarantee. Which model is good for a stock engine?

Mallory
Do no nuthin' about these

Crane
I hear that you don't need a tach adapter,adjustable rev limit, but maybe a coil? Which one HI-6, HI-6s?

Any others?

I'd really like one that is pretty much a drop in and go, but also will work if I ever put another engine in the car, 6cyl, 8cyl etc.

CDI = capacitive discharge ignition.....

i have a mallory 6a (no rev limiter) but havent finished wiring for it, because of the tachometer issue...

you need to take apart your gauge and make a jumper.....
