Default MSD Digital Switch, Recommended?

Greetings all.

I am working with a Corvette Director here on LS1Tech on buying a used TNT F1 Kit, and he has a MSD standard switch that goes with it. Is this any good? Should I fork up extra for the digital? What am I really gaining? I would like to wire up a 1st gear lockout switch too, and am not sure if I can do that on the standard.

Thanks.

I would get one from Nitrous Outlet, but you do need a window switch.

I love my digital window switch. No worry about pills and it makes testing easier because you can set the ON RMP at 0 or what ever you want while still idle and on the dyno. I just wish they made a box that could retard my timing at the same time.

The MSD works good. But Our Trick windowswitch is my favorite. This unit has a anygear lock out, Built in TPS, and dual window switch. This unit is also digital.

The advantage is that it has another window switch built in incase you are running a dual stage.

I dont think i'll ever run a dual stage, but I love the capability for multiple gear lockout!
