Best twinplug distributor for 3L SC engine?

Hi

Any recommendations? I'm looking for a twin-plug distributor for my 3L build (SC engine) with Weber carbs.

Cheers!

I went back and forth from JB and Aarons unit. For the extra scratch to get the real deal look was worth it to me and the build.

+1 on Aaron's Dizzy. I have 2 of them and they are a work of art.

A quick follow-up question; are there any technical advantages / disadvantages choosing one over the other?

Aaron"s version adds like 50 rwhp, lol. J/K. The supertech/Burns dizzy is a modified SC dizzy verse the JB is newer tech. Both come with very good support for future tweaks depending on engine needs. I havent heard any complaints over one or the other. If you want a true retro look the Burns dizzy is spot on but also about $600 more if you dont have a core to send. I dont recall what the price is to modify a core. Mine was $2200 all in no core. The JB was $1200-1500 for the dizzy.

Thanks!

Maybe a stupid question - does either product have a limitation in terms of the RPM it can handle?
