^^^ I was wondering that myself, Mine (in the pic) was dirt cheap from rockauto. I ain't used this one yet. It does get dynamite reviews. A prior one was real good but I dont remember the brand/where I got it, ran it straight thru, no ballast/OE electronic 70's (pre mallory) dist

With my luck with aftermarket parts I would feel better about a new one from the dealer, or an OEM one from a salvage before I used one from a parts store. My last couple of dealings with parts store parts haven't gone well, from a speed sensor that didn't work to a water pump so poorly cast the bolts wouldn't even go in it.

Not to discount the quality of the FD-478, but what are other guys using for a coil( Mallory, Accel,...???). I have a Blaster 2 with a MSD 6-AL, and at 3/4 track it seems to stutter or breakup intermittently, also the Tach has been wacky intermittently. any advice would be appreciated. Also how would you mount the fd-478. I had this happen and it was the tach causing it. Took forever to find it but got lucky one day and saw the tach acting weird. No problem in 6 years since replacing it. Easy test just disconnect the tach wire on the msd box and see if it goes away. so would you go down the track without a tach??? i don't think i have a spare tach sitting around.
