Default what ignition boxes?

What is everyone running for ignition? I'm building 2 502s, 9:1 prob 741 cams, will run n/a for now and put b&m 250s on in a couple years.
I have one 7al2 and a pro billet distributor. Anyone have reliabilty issues with these? I've used them for years but never in a marine application.

what do you do with the rev limiters all the thunderbolts have rev limiters built into the modules not questioning just curious have a similar motor setup and was thinking about switching to those cams but wondering what i had to do to get around the rev limiters in the tb5
