best distributor for the buck

250-350 dollars is a LOT of money for JUST a distributor when you can upgrade a stock one with the HEI swap and a curve kit from FBO. Financially, it's a no brainer.

And talking about how the HEI breaks up at 7K RPM. That's hilarious. How many of us will really see those RPMs? If we're honest, probably not many at all. Besides, there are performance HEI modules available that will fire just fine beyond 7K if you just want the big bench racin bragging balls. That's about all they're worth to most people.[/QUOTE]

I agree the mopar distributor w HEI upgrade is cheap n good for most apps you will find on this forum. Thats why im doing this as well. I also noted that these engines in streetable modified form max out power wise typically at 5,500rpm. Which makes the stock HEI modules peaking at 7K just fine. Rusty, i mentioned the 7k on stock modules in my original post, since most people doing this are not going to see 7,000 rpms.

If your a purist and a drag racer with a high rpm engine a gold box with a 1.4 ohm resistor works great at high rpms too Or as rusty mentioned put a high perf HEI module in

Yep my flag is Poland. I like to be funny that way. Actually I'm half Polish half Italian. However since I'm born in the great U.S. of A. I am 100% American Texan.

I will let y'all in on a secret tho, shhhhh dont tell anyone. Not even johnny dart. I am the owner of that sweet camaro 4x4 he posted on this thread. Just joking !!!! LOL.!!!! Being i am a mopar guy, i actually prefer 69 charger bodies on top of dodge ramcharger chassis with the prerequisite HEI module hack job install of course.
