nothing special about an msd cap and rotor. if you need to do a tune up and your changing your cap / rotor because your old one is worn / corroded then an msd is fine. it has brass pieces inside instead of the el cheapo caps that use aluminum..... then again the better of the el cheapo caps from the local autoparts store usually have brass too.
