MSD is programmable and has a ton of other features compared to the junky edelbrock version. You read the FAQ sticky yet?

The Edelbrock is for the guy that wants to put a carb on an LS and drive, just drive. The MSD gives control of the spark to the owner. If just running down the road isn't good enough, buy the MSD.

What Zone said. Valve trains have a tendency to stretch and bounce around a little. IMO, you need a good .050 before bind. Its just good insurance against valve train parts getting too friendly.
