Hypertech's power cap&coil&rotor for TPI's

The 88' 305 TPI motor is in the camaro and its gonna take a week or two to get it started but ive been hearing bad reviews about the hypertech's products. I bought the hypertech's just for a minor upgrade for performance. So my question is, is the hypertech cap,coil and rotor any good for my application down in my sig. I know i could of gottten MSD or some other but i was on a budget and for 70% voltage than stock i thought it was a bargain. any suggestion or comments welcome.

It should provide more than enough voltage for your set-up. I have the coil-in-cap version. It's worked flawlessly for four years now.

So the hypertech cap will perform well for that long? I was under the impression it had to be changed , at least every few years.

err... Pertronix?

I'm still waiting for people to tell me what they think on those... so far they seem like the best bet for me... $120 for the HEI kit, has coil, cap, rotor and module, etc. etc. ... read my other posts, lol
