don't take it to the dragstrip
thinking about going with an MSD Ignition setup
70 RR Auto / reverse manual 440
mainly take it out for cruises
which one did you go with ?
which one would you recommend for my application ?
or another brand ?

The 6AL is the only one I have owned and seems to be the one most guys with 'street' cars use.
you need a 6A or 6AL, the same box but the AL has a rev limiter built in. I use 6AL in my lil truck, insurance is nice

I've used 6AL's in a few things (a Road Runner included actually) and always had great luck.
Made my Charger idle better too...helping to burn all the fuel from the six-packs that always tended to run a little fat at idle.

70DRRunner, do you already have electronic ignition? Is your distributor recurved or stock?
1970 Plymouth 'Cuda #'s 440-6(block in storage)currently 493" 6 pack, Shaker, 5 speed Passon, 4.10's 1968 Plymouth Barracuda Convertible 408 Magnum EFI with 4 speed automatic overdrive, 3800 stall lock-up converter and 4.30's (closest thing to an automatic 5 speed going)

I really like the 6AL used in conjuction with a re-curved older electronic Chrysler distributor.
Seems to be street friendly and parts for both the distributor (pickup, cap, rotor etc.) and new MSD boxes are as close as the nearest parts house.
