[DeTomaso] MSD distributor

[Stephen]

Hey Jim - even better - if you go with MSD's fuel injection you can have the
vacuum and mechanical advance set by the MSD system.  Nice in that you can
tell the computer what you want for both advance settings - giving you
whatever you want.  The more I drive 5332 the more happy I am I went with
fuel injection.

Jim,

The specific answer to your question is that you want the MSD 8477:

Vacuum advance
Iron gear for non roller cam. 

The 8577 has mechanical advance only. I have that one but people say the
vacuum advance is a desirable feature for a street car.
