Default Summit MSD Ignition

Does anyone have experience with Summits mechanical tach drive distributor and digital multi spark boxes? They look good on paper and are less expensive than MSD....but...how do they perform? I'm ready to pull the trigger on a new ignition and could use a little advice and guidance. Phil

I already have an MSD box and distributor. If I was looking to buy I would be very tempted to buy the Summit stuff. What is their warranty?

A large percentage of the Summit branded items are made by the same well-known brand manufacturers.
