Excuse me if I'm wrong, but doesn't MSD work on capacitive discharge theory?

Excuse my ignorance I never took the time to figure out what MSD stood for or if I heard it, I forgot.
Some where out in the garage I have an ancient Delta Mark Ten system that if I can ever find I just might try to get it to work on the Mustang.

Denny is MSD A brand name? If not what is the difference between HEI and MSD? I have the Mallory HEI . Do I need a different timing light to set my timing? Right now I am set on 12 deg.Advance and the car was set with a regular old timing light I bought at a garage sale.

Denny the timing light is different for the MSD System vs HEI system,right?
So I am OK at setting the timing with the regular single pulse timing light?

Thanks for the info.I am back in school when it comes to understanding any thing electrical.
