In one of mine so cool trips to U.S., I got one HEI out of a Nova in a junk yard. It was in fairly good shape, 4 pin module. Got it, and when hit home back put it in the 250 that was lurking in my opala's engine bay. That was just 8 years ago. One time the module gave up. No sweat, opened one of the V8 Hei I had in the stock, took the used module out and put it in the L6 one. And is good til today. Have used many ignition systems thru the times, and IMHO, the HEI is by far and large the best of them all. Reliable, simple and inexpensive. What else can one ask for? the only down is the huge size, all the rest is just hapiness. And if You think it's not good enough, try putting a MSD 6A or something similar hooked to it. Softer springs help a li'l too.
