What all did you have wired up in there Rob?

I see the 6AL and the limiter window switch but what is that big box on the far right and is that a retard box (start I assume?) under the 6al?

to the right is the start retard box, directly under the box was a 2 step switch for use with the transbrake and the one to the right of that with the dial was a selectable rpm chip for selecting my launch rpm.

Thanks EVERYONE!

Thank you everyone for your advise,insight,and help. I really apperacite it. BIG TIME. I know that I want to upgrade my ignition (to bad I know very little about it.) What do you guys know and think about something called D.U.I. (Davis unified ignition) I found out about it lastnight looking around the net. from what I can tell it is the same as a chevy ignition, only more powerful and for a ford. It only has a 2 wire hook up.1 for the tach,and 1 for power. It will get rid of my stock ingition box,coil,and stock dizzy. The new dizzy,coil,and ingition will be all 1 pice. That is all I know about it. How do you guys feel about it? How does it compare to a Msd set up?

A DUI its a metric ***** ton better than a Pro Comp HEI but its pretty hard to beat a Duraspark distributor and a 6AL. Plenty of trucks in the 800+ range using the same setup.
