he who removes rev limiter today removes engine tomorrow
without one, you'll find yourself picking up powdered connecting rods up off the ground. it stops the engine from spinning too fast, which would otherwise destroy it very quickly.
from what i can tell, 90% of the guys out there use the MSD (aka Multiple Spark Discharge) 6AL box, the Blaster SS coil, and if necessary the 3-stage limiter. the 6AL ignition uses a rev limiter which drops spark to random cylinders for one stroke and then ignites them on the next stroke to prevent fuel accumulation. this limiter is controlled by small plug-in module with the RPM written on it, or by a box that takes its place and carries 3 or these modules for more flexible limiting. this is called soft-touch rev control because it's not as harsh as most controllers. the blaster SS is capable of extremely high RPMs (more than you'll probably ever use) and is very durable. coupled with the MSD pro-billet distributor you have a pretty much invincible iginition system, analog or not
as far as subframes goes, definitely get the full-lengths. i'll use those on mine, and it's not a convertible. you can get them from maximum motorsports, upr products, or Steeda, the latter being very high-end.
