I have the pioneer non-sfi HB. I like it and have heard good things about it. I got mine at advance.

I went threw 2 or 3 stock replacements in short order and few miles from "the zone".

 

[94GTCoupe]

did they have it in stock,or is it a special order?how much you pay for it?

I got the Romac off of ebay, nice piece.

Pioneer SFI spec

One piece unit so no spacer needed

No install hassles of any kind

I went SFI cause I spin to and a tad above 6K on occasion

It was around $150 IIRC

Lightweight Romac here. Works good on my streeter.

For the price, the Pioneer SFI is the way to go. No problems with mine...install was easy.

blksn955.0,is your pioneer the standard or heavy duty?

 

[blksn955.o]

When I got mine they only had SFI and non-SFI...its been 4yrs or so since I got mine so maybe they have new names in the system...std. may be the non-sfi and HD may be the sfi unit...I do not know.

 

[94GTCoupe]

thanks,the reason i ask is because there's a $63 differance between the two.$153 for the heavy duty w/1 year warranty.$90 standard w/1 year.

Bolts to the front of the crank. It has your timing markings on it.
