I'm helping a friend set up an aftermarket CD ignition on his rail buggy.

Why should I not use the MSD distributor?

I'm going to use a 6A MSD ignition.

Joe is that the cam you got from me? I don't think that is what it is? I think it is a straight 86b/86b+5. Check the end of the cam and see what it says. Yeah you will need heads and springs to make that cam work right. Plus you will need some compression otherwise it will bleed off.

Yes Brett this is the cam I got from you. could have sworn it has 163 stamped on it. But then again I should stop and look before I spout off crap here.

Compression won't be a problem with the new pistons I got.

STILL need rods Just won't be happy till I get some H beam rods 24mm little end VW journal big end ARP bolts.. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chowtime.gif) and still kicking myself for not buying the heads from you when I had the chance. Snooze you lose.
