Default Mallory 685 Ignition or just a window switch?

Okay, I bought a Mallory 685 because it has lots of goodies including a window switch, but I'm not sure if its even compatible with an LS1...does anyone know? If not, would I be fine just going with the stock ignition and a window switch? Also can I adjust the retard on the stock ignition?

LS1s are a distributorless coil-on-plug ignition, and arguable as good as any typical aftermarket ignition. The Mallory is not compatible. A window switch is fine. Timing functions are controlled by the computer and can be adjusted with LS1Edit.

Yeah, had a couple setbacks in the fall and got out of the usual routine, but I'm starting to get back to the usual routine.
