    i have a 6al setup to my 302w with an HEI ignition, runs like a whole new car with the box.....
    just because your car is faster, doesn't mean i cant outdrive you... give me a curvy mountain road and i'll beat you any day

    I have run the 6A on several cars with never a problem. If you plan on racing (i.e. high rpm) the 6AL is a good choice, but for most street driven cars, not worth the extra bucks. I'm trying the small diameter billet distributor as well in my new project - should be interesting after years of "never broken" Dura Spark dizzys.

    I've had a 6AL on my 32 roadster for over ten years.
    No problems.
    Runs with a Mallory Unilite distributor.

    Make darned sure you have a good ground with both these units.
    That seems to be where problems start and failure - sometimes - isn't far behind.

    I chose the 6AL due to it's capability of having different RPM maximums.
    Change a chip does it.

    Kinda nice to throw in the 3000 rpm chip when the kid drove the car....
