      The D.U.I. ignition kicks much ass. I am running it on my '79 20r. I love the fact that it hooks up with just one wire! Plus I have it allows me to run my spark plug gaps way wider (.055). I personally think it made for very noticeable power gains over the stock ignition system. It probably makes a slight difference at the pump, but in my case it wasn't noticeable. All in all, I am very happy with my DUI. One thing I'd warn against is that is very large compared to the stock ignition, so if you are ever going to body drop your truck, you might want to go with the stock ignition components so it clears the hood. Otherwise I am very happy with it.

      3.75" total for the front where it drops down. 1.5" for the part that Z'd up by the firewall and 2.25" to put the top of the pinch weld level with the bottom of the frame (on my truck) for a total of 3.75".

    Current Modifications:
    Ball joint flip in the front with torsion bars removed. Halfway done with body drop. Frame z'd 1.5". Middle leafs removed from the rear springs.
    Future Modifications:
    I plan to z/notch the frame and do a cantilevered 4 link setup. Mount up my new Lexus is300 rims so I can use my new drop spindles and get some damn pics up...

    Oh yeah, and one of these days I need to find a bed. :-P
