Who made the distributor and what's in the bags? Not to rain on your parade, but I wouldn't get anything short of American-made MSD stuff. Are the plug wires spiral wound? Wires like the MSD Heli-Cores are definitley worth the investment, and infinitley better than Accel carbon wires.

If that's a Summit distributor, better buy an extra ignition control module. Mine burned with less than 2K miles on it.

Yes the disrtibutor is a Proform. The items in the bags are a HEI power pigtail from summit and a chrom distributor hold down. The wires are ACCEL Spiral Core wires.
