HEI distributor on 400 big block in 1974 Dodge Dart Sport

The point of the HEI set-up is to get rid of that extra mess. Keep in mind $96.00 of the above price was for the MSD ignition wires, and $40.00 was an unessesary MSD coil cover.
With that in mind, I have about $275.00 into the distributor/ignition system.

Even the cheaper analog MSD 6AL box is $250.00 shipped. That's about what I have into my entire digital HEI set-up. The Mopar Performance distributor is another $175.00 shipped on top of that. A cheap MSD Blaster2 coil is another $50.00 shipped.
Thats $475.00, not including the $96.00 ignition wires or the male/HEI terminal cap ($50 shipped).
It would cost me ~$620.00 to go that route and I am not convinced that the analog CD boxes are any better than the digital HEI set-ups, especially for an additional $210.00. < Thats almost a set of KB240 pistons or about helf way to some 440 source connecting rods...
