I brought a summit box for 119$ to replace my aging duraspark, and it works very good. The hook up was simple soo far so good. Its really a mallory unit made for summit. The car runs soooo much better; it was money well spent ( so far)

Why do you want to upgrade the ignition on a stock or very mild car? Why don't you just send me a check for $180?
