You know, I have never had issues with any Mallory product I can think of...but a customer of mine just had to have an MSD distributor over the Mallory I wanted to use so I gave in....only after I insisted on a Mallory Powermaster coil. Well, fast forward about 600 miles and guess what? The pick-up coil in the MSD distributor went bad. The Mallory Nitrous 6 controller lost the signal and would not start the car. Thinking I may have a bad mallory box which would make me feel stupid, I switched to a Mallory Hy-Fire 6 and still no spark. I started troubleshooting the Mallory box and grounded the green lead and I got a spark through the coil and out to the plugs. So I pulled that distributor and replaced the pick-up lead...started right up after that. WTF? I really don't care for MSD. All this hassle which is warrantied so I ate all the labor for this one. I swear I am never going to suggest MSD to anyone. Sorry, I had to rant.
