Thinking about MSD Ignition

I am thinking about installing an MSD type ignition in hopes of cleaning up the last bit of roughness of idle during warmup and pick up some "improved" performance. I like the idea of higher voltage sparks that will encourage a good spark even in difficult fouling and warmup conditions and the multiple spark that could help at low to mid rpms when mixture in the cylinder could be variable and "swirling"..... seems to me like it could help.

Based on my short look, it appears that no one sells an MSD type ignition complete with optical or magnetic pickup replacement of the points. Unless someone knows of one?

The MSD(tm) unit and the Crane Fireball unit seem reasonable and I have seen the Pelican tech article on the MSD unit.

Any experience out there on these units. What is a good price for each.... and place to buy.... the Pelican Price on the MSD is pretty steep...(sorry guys)...
