Just wondering if anyone has used one of the new DSM Electronic distributors or have heard anything with either positive or negative feed back as I'm looking at putting one on my sons 202 engine.
Thanks
DSM Electronics Holden 6 electronic distributor

The way I see it you have two choices:
1, Buy an unknown dissy with unknown performance and reliability from someone who has the spelling ability of a six year old (if the ebay site is any indication). Spares probably only available from the six year old.
or
2, Use a Bosch HEI from a blue or black six, a dissy that has proven itself by outperforming the majority of aftermarket units. Pretty good reliability, parts available everywhere - remember they were used on other cars besides Holdens. Familiar to auto sparkies and mechanics everywhere. Cheap and plentiful.
It's up to you.

DO NOT use Procomp distributor's, they are junk.
old man was using one with a mallory hi fire 6, half way down the track, it would shut down for 4 or so seconds, then come back to life.
it was fixed when we gutted a 265 hemi distributor and put the guts into a procomp dizzy body, works great but they are getting a little hard to come by.
cheers kevin
