Anybody using Performance Distributors Ford D.U.I.

I was thinking of using this for my 51 with a 302. Anybody using this and do you have any pro or cons with using a 3 in 1 ignition system?

I,ve got one on my 460 and so far (600 miles) it has been great! performance is good, and it cleans up the wiring in the eng. bay.

I'm using the ProComp HEI distributor (like in the ebay item 8075008143) on my 460..

It works great, and is easy to setup and with less wires, it looks cleaner.
Might be an indirect picture of it in my gallery..

Now there IS one problem, the size of the body make it hard to find a thermostat housing that works well (and looks good)..

I had to dremel to bottom edge of the dizzie case, and find a specific thermostat cover.. and have about 1/16-1/8 in clearance now
