MSD is horrible for our engines.
The reliability of the units is one concern and the other is the fact that you MUST use a CDI box.
The biggest concern I have with them are their magnetic pick ups Vs. optical on the Mallory as well as their inability to be adjusted to an optimum advance curve for our engines. Most advance curves for the MSD keep advancing clear past 5K RPM![/quote]
I've been lurking till now. But Not Any MoreI have a 75 2.0 DJet which is Stock Except for the Crane Hi/6, 3000 optical sensor & their 50K coil.
My question is this as Bad, Better or Worse then the MSD set up.
I will be Installing Webber Carbs Soon & picked a new 009 for that ...But I have since learned that is not the way to go.
No big deal it was cheap enough.
I would love to have one of Jakes Mallorys' but Money could be an Issue for now.
Also would the Mallory & the stock FI set up work Better then ...
Carbs W/stock cam & 009 W/ crane added????
So Jake what can I do / use in the mean Time ???

(Mostly due to lack of opposition)
I have done nothing to the motor since I bought it in 1999 & it runs OK but I will be looking to do a Stock rebuild this winter, till then I thought the Carbs (which I already own ) might give me a little more low End to get me around the course.
I realize there are many variables here But I have these carbs & B4 this season ends I'd like to see how the car feels with them.
