MSD 6AL worth it?

I am currently building a 383 TPI for my car and was wondering if I should upgrade to a MSD 6AL box at the same time. Worth it be worth upgrading to?

Re: MSD 6AL worth it?

I am wondering about the boxes in general, what do they do and what is the advantage of them.

The rev-limiter is about the only feature relevant to a street car.
