Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!

Great video. I’m currently running 4 white box hei distributors. One jegs, one summit, and 2 random eBay. Same Chinese parts, different suppliers. All work great

Well I'm glad you're having better luck than me! I've had several and they've all failed. What sort of builds are you running them in? Stock or performance?

Specifically that exact one the bravex brand

If you have a 12 volt power supply, and an MSD 88981 ignition tester, you can test the module yourself.

Do you have part # of this dist., thanks

Any distributor is good if you prepare it right.

Chinese distributors will put your ass walking.

i rewired mine for the 4 wire set up, installed an accel performance module (plus cap/rotor/coil) and clipped the "retard" terminal off the original GM one before stashing it in the glovebox

I stuck a DUI cap on one and burned the module up in two days for the hell of it lol

Oh man!! No surprise there. I've read/heard that coils and modules should be paired. What do you think?

@@diveingaragewith a DUI cap/coil definitely, using a DUI coil on something not meant for a DUI coil is certain doom, the only other modules that will work are Pertronix Flamethrower and Summit racing’s version!

@@diveingarage running all accel parts (4-wire module, cap/rotor, super coil) on my OEM distributor that originally had the 5 wire "retard on signal" ESC module. AC Delco plug wires and R45TS Plugs. about 12 degrees initial timing and i found that the oem weights/bushings with one medium and one light spring pulled a really nice curve with all the timing (36-38) in by 3100 RPM or so. 1984 G20 van with the 305, btw. very pleased with how it runs. aside from the edelbrock carb/alum intake the only mods have been deleting the god-forsaken emissions/ESC controls. just approaching 100k original miles so this old girl's got some good years in her yet i think
