Well if my motor needs repared, and going with a bigger cam. Should i upgrade the distributer to a m.s.d. The one in it is the one southern puts in which is the regular ford one. And go with bigger spark plug wires. youre thoughts, thanks

In a word - YES!!! There has been much discussion - do a search on "MSD Distributor". I changed my SA to an MSD Pro-Billet and never looked back. A huge improvement :D

YES!!!

We replaced the Ford Duraspark in Mom & Dad's almost a year ago - right after the Ford distributor seized & sheared the drive gear in Pigeon Forge last year. MSD made for much faster starts, much smoother idle, less wiring, etc.
