Curious...was the MSD getting a full 12V?

I thought the Pro-Billets were only used with a CD box of some sort...?

i just did my distributor and wires last weekend. MSD wires for $90 and a stock replacement Accel brand($125+tax,made in China) and its been running great. glad you at least got the problem solved, I know how frustrating having things like that going on can be. It can be consuming of time and energy.
