which is better MSD or Fireball or the holly thing?

well the topic says all. I have read up on some adds and it seems the Holly (I know I'm gonna spell it wrong) Anialator? had way more power than the MSD and is not that much more(like 40 bucks). I have also read the even the Crane Fireball is stronger than the MSD unit(6a/6AL), is this true? cause I was thinking of MSD but hell if its weaker then the others No way am I gonna get it.

The MSD Digital 6 is the best ignition money can buy in my opinion... nearly 2x the voltage of the fireball.. if i keep the firebird, im getting one of these for myself.

I have Accel. I love it, but I got it as a gift. If I had to spend my money MSD would be the only option. I would get the MSD 6A and the MSD Direct Replacement Coil. I would avoid Mallory and Holly... Crane makes a nice unit for our cars, but MSD is the most solid when you ask racers. It may not make the most spark, but can take a beating...
