    I didn't want to hijack anybody else's thread so is this overkill, I can't afford it I was simply wondering if this has any merit in our V6s:

    For the Jeep owners with the Buick 225 Odd-Fire V6 engine, we have a DUI distributor for you. The odd-fire V6 distributor has all of the same features as the AMC DUI such as the 50,000 volt coil, Dyna Module, custom advance curve and one wire hookup. Like all of our other DUI distributors, this version is available in Street/Strip or Racing.

    Part # Application-Street/Strip Price Part # Application-Race Price
    63720 225 Odd-Fire Buick V6 $295.00 637212 225 Odd-Fire Buick V6 w/o vac $359.00

    $300 seems kinda steep. What are the advantages to this bad boy? "Street/Strip or Racing" Well I'd have to go with racing of course.

    Tuned specifially for the engine it's in. Weights, etc. specificallyl curved for that application and the coil is high voltage. Keep an eye on Ebay, you can get 'em for less than that.

    I haven't seen any on ebay in a while from the guy I bought mine from. I know member "fugginjim" bought one from him also, but that was several months back. I paid less than $100 shipped for a brand new DUI that had a crack in the cap....I had to search hard to find the crack he was talking about. I think the DUI is the only thing that keeps my otherwise tired dauntless going strong. The standard HEI I had helped, but not to the degree of this beast.

    Yes I have one also havent really used it yet but in the drive way it seemed to have made a difference in throttle response. Got it through Ebay at $150 with shipping. I believe well worth that price but 359 is kinda steep

    Where are all you guys getting this thing for under $200? So I'll rebuild my HEI - rotor, cap and ignition module, while I wait for a DUI to show up.
    Billy, I unplugged my tach last night and made it all the way home!
