Default Cranecams Fireball Ignition

Is anybody here running this? I bought a used MSD 6AL but, seems like the Fireball is better. Can anyone give their thoughts on Cranecams product? Is it good and reliable?

Ive had mine for around 6 years, first while it was a street car, now its a drag car and Im still using it...

As for better/worse, I cant comment, Ive never had an MSD... but to answer your reliability question, the crane is a nice piece that I have NEVER had a problem with...

here's the reason for reliability:

Crane fireball VS. MSD

currently im running crane ignition system and it's awesome. to change the rev-limiter all you need to do is turn a couple small dials. with MSD you need to buy extra pills.......

Yah, I saw their site before. Which is why I want to find out who is running the Fireball and how do they like it.

Basically, just a few wires to hook up. Power, ground, coil, etc.
