Don't have one yet but will soon. Heard and read nothing but good things about them. Had a incident last Sunday that took my ignition funds.

the only issue i have ever had with an hei is that you MUST HAVE A CONSTANT 12 VOLTS if you dont they will cut out on you and yo will burn out the little Mondale.

Never had a problem burning out anything and even converted Chevelle to HEI.

well over 500,000 miles with out a failure, sbc, bbc. gm modules seem to be the best over napa- autozone-checker
For a boat app, weight kit and a vacuum advance lock-out kit.
Points are for model "A's"

My floater has a low intake, Torker 2 for now so adding a big HEI to it shouldn't be a problem. In the car world those alts are excellent and I cant see it not being the same on a boat, just have to make sure I get the locking positive wire and no matter what remove the module and regrease it heavily. FYI that grease is very important to the removale of heat. I've seen many fail just because the grease was never used. I've never dealt with points all I know is old timers brag about how they can set them with a matchbook cover.

Thats the 1st I have heard. I know mallory unilite modules go out if you look at em wrong...never had problems with an hei module before. I run a hi perf module and msd coil in mine. Zero clearance issues for me also....

What intake do you run? BBC right?

The HEI will not clear with some intake manifolds, double check before you spend any money.

If you're looking for electronic without spending too much I'd recommend the Pertronix conversion for the dual point.

I'm running an HEI small call cap w/a remote coil. absolute zero problems. lost two sets of pistons with a mallory unilite, tossed it into the scrap pile
