It claims to be a 2-wire hook-up, where you give it 12v and run an external coil of your choice.. I assume a high powered one?
They also claim it has an easily adjustable mechanical advance.. which is pretty damn cool to me. (pardon my ignorance if this is not desirable, i am pretty new to distributor/carb engines.. mostly diesel knowledge)
The distributor in question.
Back story, last year I converted my grandmothers 1988 5th (318) from a 2bbl ESA/ELB to a 4bbl 850cfm thermoquad.
Below are some threads, links and videos to familiarize yourself with what I am working with
The post regarding all my original swap questions and the swap itself.

The electronic conversion kit I am using. << As it would appear looking back at the info for this dizzy, I bought high-performance one! LOL 7500rpm and a WILD advance curve!
The reason I am asking for your opinion on the adjustable distributor is because the proform one comes on pretty hot, and for a stock 318smogger with stock everything but the ignition and an addition of a 4 barrel.. It is fairly hard to get tuned properly. The adjustable mechanical advance seems like it would be worth the price to me.
How do you all feel?
