I would go with the chrome box,they seem to be more reliable then the orange.

The chrome is more reliable and the spark phasing is more stable.

Thanks guys!!! It seems like I have read on many occasions of the orange box going bad. What about coils? Stock mopar or a hotter one? I want this to look mostly stock. The motor is going in a 1971 Twister Duster.

I use a MSD Blaster 2 works great,but I'm sure a stock coil would work fine.

Yeah, I did forget about Don's replacement system. It is a much better choice.

The FBO unit that Rampage linked is far better than the MOPAR units.
Here's a link to the original, non-CD system - http://www.4secondsflat.com/a688specs.html |
