Your thinking of the wrong MSD box, LS1-MSD box's are fully electronically programmable . With the advantage of multi-spark and capacitive discharge. But if you still don't want the MSD box this system works with any 24x ignition and or fuel injection system, many to choose from.
Camshafts run on 2:1 ratio which is 720 degree's of crank revolutions. A crank sensor can only give you 360 degrees. Since you cant get rid of the distributor anyhow because its driving your
oil pump I added a cam sensor. The cam sensor tells the computer where its at in the 720 degree range. One of the main advantages here is that you get instant startups. The second your finger touches that starter button the engine is running.
