Sorry for the delay in my answer, I have been at my best friend's wedding out of town all weekend. I just got back today.

Love all the MSD stuff. I have spoken with a guy that worked at MSD and he said their Street Fire line is budget friendly but works the exact same as their top of the line. I have one in my Camaro and love it. Just make sure you get one for a SBF and that the gear on your camshaft is compatible with the gear on your distributor.

Best,
Ryan

No worries, Ryan. Thank you for getting back to me. Congrats to your buddy’s wedding and also, I want to thank you for answering all my questions about my build I highly appreciate it couldn’t do it without you. So, I have this MSD distributor which I was wondering if it’s a good one to run for the setup I went with.

No problem! That is what I am here for! Thank you!

So that depends if you are running EFI on your build. That unit has a computer controlled advance curve which is cool but you need the right computer. If that is what you are running, then this unit is perfect!

Hey great question! I had to look it up because off the top of my head I would had said up. But past me said this https://youtu.be/DVVW_mgo1YE?t=192 face down. So, I would have read that out of the directions that came with the heads so that is got to be it. You might want to double check yours just in case they changed it for some reason although I do not see why they would. Thanks for using 2CarPros!

Best,
Ryan
