Good friend of mine has a '97 Suburban SLE C2500 with this engine, and we're looking to replace the distributor. This has been something that was put off for quite some time, so it's time to get it out the way.
From what I've read, '97s have problems with the teeth at the end of the distributor shaft wearing out prematurely. There's also slightly more play in the distributor than what I'd consider normal, so it's time for a replacement.
I've been looking at two different MSD products, and was really looking for some input on which would be a better choice. I reckon this is a nice time to upgrade:
MSD 8360 Pro-Billet Distributor
MSD 85551 Pro-Billet Distributor
I'm not limited to these choices, and am wide open to other suggestions. I'm just confused as to what the differences were between the two. Thanks!
