mallory ign. boxes (any good?)
just wondering if the mallory ignition boxes are any good or if anyone has any experience with them? i've been doing a little research lately and am a little up in the air on what route to go. looking at crane and msd also. i just want good spark, reliability and not have to pay a fortune. lol..
thanks,
john

ran mallory in my top sportsman car for a bit, box was fine, had issues with the pickup in the dist...just like msd...crank trigger turned out to be the only cure..cheap chinese parts and both mallory and msd use the same junk there... for just good spark run a H/P hei....can't beat them

This was kind of my thought also as far as going with HEI. I see way to many threads concerning ign. issues with all the others.

several co.s making high performance HEI's DUI is one of them, I have ran a couple makes, all been great, running a engine works right now, great thing about them, if you have a failure, any auto parts store can get you running with a module or coil...

Check out the crane box. I just got mine yesterday and it looks great. Everything is plug and play for the thunderbolt ignition plus it has a rev limiter which I like, as well as 8 different advance curves. If you interested let me know, I'll bring it over and you can check it out.
When I talked to Bob on this issue, he said the Thunderbolt distributer with the crane box was his suggestion. I had a blank slate and could have used anything.
