:Whatever: Best ignition system I have ever run!!! that includes running blown engines in a marine environment for 20+ yrs. I have run stock,crane,magnetos and always end up with MSD. That said some people cheap out and purchase the automotive box and complain when it fails in marine set up. If your looking to up grade heads,cam,blower why would you leave the stock set up.No matter whos box you run I would always carry a spare.They all fail with no warning.

Same answer I posted before. The 500HP's timing curve built into the module is pretty good for a blower set up as well.
