 +1 for the FAST XR700. I went right to that when I rebuilt my distributor when I first got the car. Did a lot of research and it seemed that there was a lot to be said for the optical system, as opposed to Pertronix’s magnetic method of timing.

I’ve been using it for almost three years in conjunction with the flamethrower 2 without any issues.

My only gripe is that FAST, after all the changes in hands from the original creators, doesn’t know anything technical about it, so they were pretty worthless on the help line.

For a couple hundred less than the MSD ignition, it fit the budget nicely. I just wish it had a rev limiter (for when I let someone else drive).. I recall reading a story about a person’s friend missing the brake and hitting the gas. Stupid little pedals..

Best,
Patrick
