Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"

Then my HEI module took a **** on me and the dizzy was under warranty so I sent it back and upgraded it to the MSD E Curve. It will control my rev limiter plus I can setup my curve exactly how I want it. No messing with springs bushings. Just turn some dials and go.

Thanks. I like how it looks wet lol. I am taking the polished one off the truck and trying this one out and see how I like the look. Black it out. With a touch of polished/chrome.
