DUI anyone tried it

The problem with that is in design engineering. GM was the first to place the coil on top of the distrubuter but others tried it too including Honda.
I wont say its any more or less dependable than other ignition systems. They all fail.
I can say Honda abandonded that pile up after only 1 years production ( 92 I think ).
Will it fit the A-body with any available wiper motor ? Can'answer that one.
 
I don't thin it'll fit an abody with a stock wiper motor, my MSD E-curve barely fits, and I mean barely but I don't know how tall those are.
I will say though when you said DUI I was thinking of something else haha

its the most dependable dizzy set-up built,..just based off a gm design,..an takin 2 to 3 levels up,....only thing more accurate is crank trigger deals,..an its good to 9,000 rpms an over 65,000 volts from one 10 gauge wire hook up!! wouldnt call it a pile up!
 
yes..they will fit an A body with wipers.....tight fit...but it will fit.

picked up one of the DUI race units a few years ago...have not used it YET....probably this spring...very nice piece though
 
If you search the site you will see they make a model with a smaller cap (small block size) and external coil. This is the version they recommend for A Bodies. The control module is mounted on the side.

Here's a link to the DUI "Dodge Tri-Power Ignition" distributor with the smaller cap, externally mounted module, and separate coil. They specifically say "This system is ideal for small blocks in Darts, Demons, Dusters and pre-1970 Barracudas that also cannot use the DUI."

Wow! $309 for an e-distributor w/ 4-pin HEI module bolted to the side, plus a canister coil. The Chinese "ready-to-run" distributor on e-bay is similar but the module is covered and has an apparently better pickup, ~$65 w/ better E-core coil.
