What do you recommend as far as DIS is concerned mattallac? What I currently have at my disposal is a "distributor" from an 87 FC and RX8 COPS and then I have a spare Megajolt Lite Jr. programmable ignition box by AUTOSPORTLABS that uses the ford EDIS modules (<- I can't say for certain if it's proper operation is contingent solely on a 36-1 Trigger wheel).

I'm still learning my way around the rotary ignition which is contributing to my indecision.

I'm gonna use the AEM smart coils (78.00 each).I have a turbo fc in my rx2 so the AEM smart coils have the built in igniters and a small package .I have a Haltech sprint re for the ecu. Im just a big fan of inductive coils ,Its simple and effective .The msd boxes didn't make any difference ,so theye were a big waste of money . I started a coil thread a while ago and a lot of educated guys had some great info about coils .I will admit I am no coil guru ,but simplicity is usually in my best interests .Have you sorted out your hard starting issue?
