Back on topic:

The engine I have IN the car is a ´70 SCJ: 2YABC crank, D0OE rods, Wiseco flat tops 30 over, Crane custom ground steel roller, coated springs, titanium 10° retainers etc. etc.

What I was disappointed with in this setup was not the engine, but the VERY expensive MSD ignition system: Billet 8477 and Digital Six plus. I have changed bushings and springs in the distributor to no avail. Advance is still limited to about 19° centrifugal w. a maximum 10° initial setting. The digital box quits, indicator light falls out of sink with the ignition pulses, then dies. Worst money I ever spent. I get virtually no useful help from these people.

Anyone care to swap MSD complaints?

6.0 Powerstroke Cam
22 to 29% better fuel economy
300 degrees cooler EGT's on average
Spools turbo 600 rpm quicker
50/100 HP/Torque increase over stock cam and 800 rpm wider rpm range
Throttle response like a gas pickup
Use OEM springs.
Smaller than stock cam.
Billet core.

Not really. All of them are air compressors. One just happens to run in constant detonation. I was said 3 years ago, "What's he know he comes from the gas world." Oh how opinions have changed in 3 years.
