HEI Distributor question?

[bdunnam]

Ok, so I'm working on destroying my 2nd AMC 258 i6 / 4.2l ... I have the chevy HEI distributor, not sure what kind or where it came from (was on the motor when i got it), and I was just wondering if there is a good option for a rev limiter. Any ideas on who makes a good one or if there is one on the stock HEI's that wont rev past 5k?

Thanks old dog, no offense torxhead but I believe I'm gona go with the petronix box when I get the money...

I just hope it cuts out like toyotas do, I love the sound of a good waverunner playing at the mud bogs....

Keep in mind, I have a v8, but I bought this.

MSD Ignition 5520 - MSD Street Fire CD Ignitions - Overview - SummitRacing.com

adjustable rev limiter, + more.

I bought this at the same time doing DUI distributor, new plugs wires and re-wired the whole ignition system though... So may not be right for what you are wanting
