MSD or Jacobs?

Well yet another question... I'm definatly going to pick up a new ignition kit soon... so what do you think about the MSD 6-Offroad and the Jacobs Off-Road Ultra Team?
Is one better then the other? anyone have one? did they help anything?

And whats the deal with the "uphill" part of the Jacobs kit?

also do I get it right when I see that these kits use the original distributor.

Yet again... let me know.

i cannot speak for the jacob ignition systems.
I use the MSD 6AL and it is reliable.
From what i see at the car show gatherings i go to, the MSD systems out number all other`s....Maby 5 to 1.
They seem to be easy to configure and adapt. i was not hurt by the price either.
