I want to get all the supporting mods first before I get a blower next summer, so I want to upgrade my ignition. I'm getting an MSD 6AL box with rev limiter, blaster coil, and a new distributor. Which is better distributor, Accel or MSD?

I don't own one, but I would buy the MSD over the Accel, and I plan to once I get my trans and a few other things straightened out

I've had my MSD TFI distributor for about a year and I really like it --excellent workmanship and haven't had any hiccups. MSD distributors are always one of those parts that are so nice, when you take it out of the box you don't want install it.
