Hi There; The mix of bits I use with success is :malloy alloy dist.
pertronixMSD 6AL Digital. (rev limiter)Taylor 8mm wires. Although not
perfect, The parts are fairly easy to get, Not tooo costly and most important
to me..they work ! The dist. will go about 2 seasons before they need a
basic refresh/rebuild. The advance weight bushings fail (plastic). The malloy
rotors are weak. Carry a spare ! Also, the CSRG folks do not allow MSD ign.,
so the box is placed in a discreet location..... painted black. I guess they
don't want the BIG RED box to be seen...or something like that. I'm also
interested in what other racers are using. CheersTony Garmey
