Opinions on ignition systems

I have said it a hundred times. When I stopped messing with Top Fuelers in 98, we were using SuperMag 5s...and on top of those mags was a big, honkin set of breaker points. Why? Because under the stress and violence of Blown Nitro, there was only one foolproof, reliable way to trigger that 70,000 volt spark..points!


Yep. I ran a Super Mag IV in my car. Simple and easy.

The MSD mags have a points box. I've never opened one up so I'm not sure what's in there.
