Looking for a new dist. and electronic ignition for my for my 390. Thinking about a MSD 6A ignition, but not sure about the dist. May go totally in a different direction with a DUI set-up, anyone got one? What do you think of it?

I am happy with my MSD. I do not have a vacuum advance though. If you are looking for the best fuel economy you can get then you probably want something different. They do make a vacuum advance distributor now. I have never heard anything bad about the DUI but I have never run one.

I run a MSD 6AL box with the stock DuraSpark Dist. Works fine. I am going to have the advance recurved though.

You will have even less problems with your idle position when you get the advance limited down and the springs lightened.
