Aftermaket Ignition Opinions Needed

I currently have the LG4 but will soon have a 350 with hopefully around 325-350 HP. I need to keep my computer. What aftermarket ignition system (MSD, ACCEL, Jacobs, etc..)would be best and will integrate with the computer? Should I use the atermarket module (if they have one)also?

Thanks!
Mark

I use and trust MSD ignition components.Just get a 6AL (this is what I currently run) or the new Digital 6 from MSD,either one will integrate with the computer and be more than enough for your new motor.If they have an aftermarket module,I would recommend to get that also.

I use Jacobs and I think it's great. You can't go wrong with either Jacobs or MSD. I don't have any experience with Accel and don't kown anybody who has their system so I can't give any opinion on it.

Good Luck!

I'm using the Crane HI-6A and the PS93 coil. Works great and is very easy to install, once you get all the parts. Crane doesn't supply the coil to box harness with the kit, you have to buy it separately. The Crane is slightly smaller than the MSD and fits perfectly on the driver's side firewall. About the same price as the MSD.
