Uummmmm, get it because I did. No, seriously, the MSD 6A replaces something else on your Dizzy, i'm not sure what, but on my rex, it wasn't working with just the coil, but I put the 6A on, and it runs. I guess that the best reason to go with the 6A is that you can wire in a in-car switch to mess with your timing...(I noticed that you're contemplating Nitrous (for all you F&F guys: Nosssss) -M
