No actual exp with em but I'd be more worried about the quality of the module as opposed to anything else. You could always swap in a good one, I dont see a problem with that

I am assuming there msd knock offs. I am curios if anyone has used them with luck. Or is it a get what you pay for deal. the 'Skip White' ones? i have one and it is actually a nice unit. i tried one cause of the price but it did have a vacuum advance so on the street it sucks. my issue, not the unit. my only gripe was the where it fits into the oiler. to tight but since i wasn't going to use it anymore it didn't bother grinding it.

Not sure if they are the same ones, but a co-worker bought one. He had to exchange it as the pickup didn't work. Second one worked and has been running for a year now.

My biggest concern is having to need parts for it. With my luck, anything cheap will break at the worst time. \ But isn't that like the cheapo harbor freight grinders? Throw it away and get another brand new one.....
