? about Electronic Ignition

You would need to be able to pick up a Duraspark dist. really cheap to beat the cost of the Pertronix kit.

It is a very good idea to upgrade your coil with the MSD. It makes the coil work harder, which can overheat a stock and even some aftermarket performance coils. I bought a Blaster coil when I got the MSD, made sense to buy all the ignition from the same manufacturer.

I picked up the Pertronix kit and 40,000 volt coil for $90, took maybe an hour to drop it in ... if you can get cheaper and easier than that go for it.
