Default what's the deal on pricing

let me see if i understand this right,
you can buy the kit(victor jr and msd 6010) for $670.or you can get just the msd 6010 for $310 and just the intake for $270.
why would you spend the extra $100 to buy as a kit?is there something extra in the kit they aren't advertising?

Depends on who you get it from, certain places arent getting the 6010 for what others are, i get the MSD for way more than i can from Jegs ect, so it is hard for soem companies to sell them for lower prices without losing money.

i was refering to summit and jegs.
you can buy the intake and msd as a package from them for $670.or buy just intake ($270) and just msd ($310) for a total of $580.
why spend the extra $90 to buy it as a package?what else are they including in the package?

if you buy it as a kit you can't tune the box only use the pills from what i understand. Buy the intake and then by the MSD.

yeah, the ignition box that comes with the kit is not programmable with a laptop. not sure why it's more expensive, when the cheaper option is actually better.

Ok, i took a look at it, yea, the Edelbrock unit will work, but pretty much sucks, so there is no reason to get it at all, cannot tune a timing curve yourself, lack of 2 step and nitrous retard.
