Lets discuss digital timing lights....
I am using a regular craftsman/sears timing light currently. I want to upgrade to a digital timing light. The prices that I have seen range from $100 - 500. What timing lights is everybody using? Prices? etc...
Thanks in advance for any input.

i use the analog without a problem, but it's too easy to get it wrong with analog. After seeing that, I might upgrade to the digital one

Whats up Chris, how you been? Sorry I didnt update you on how our FAST car was doing. The car got hit pretty hard from the rear, has been in the shop for months. But on a better note we ran 11.4 in an fmu car I built. Either way, its very hard to get the timing wrong with "****" style gun. Who knows if they put the 1,2,3,4 etc. timing marks on correctly. Digital is the way to go.

most digital timing lights with advance do not work on hondas because the motors turn counterclockwise. when you press the advance button on the timing light it is retarding on the crank pulley. i bought one and had to send it back.
