Just finished a full rebuild on my 318 (pics up on the album soon!) and turning to the ignition set up. basic ground up rebuild with 30 thou bore, new holley cam with just under 500 thou lift, pocket port, oversize valves, KB pistons, new lifters, rods etc , line hone, balanced, decked blah blah blah. Mopar Performance high rise manifold and new 600cfm edlebrock carby. Gilmer belt drive (shelved the Cat timing gear set!) and 904 trans shift kitted with hirst promatic in the post! is going to be a semi-show car and something I will drive most weekends - so don't want to muck around with trial and error with the dizzy/elec ignition set up. Is there a proven no dramas set up I can roll with, that won't involve remortaging the house to get me going? Advise welcomed greatly appreciated! Thanks. cam!!!

 

I personally like the MSD setups (blaster 3 coil, control boxes, 8mm wires, and their dizzies are nice).

Mopar Performance dizzy, orange box and a good coil and wires shouldn't cost you more than $300-$350. Look on Summit Racing, you should be able to find a complete (dizzy and ornage box set up for decent money. A good coil is $40 and wires will probably run another $60-$80.

 

Your doing a real nice job on your project. looks good.

 

mopar orange box is a good way to go
