Bottom line: What does a spare control module cost. How long of a wait to get one. Have to order it????

IIRC The Ford TFI is a one wire change if module goes bad. NOT an entire breaker plate assembly change. TFI module bought at ANY auto parts store.

I've never tried the TFI. Did try the GM module tho and it DOES NOT work very well on engines with more than 6 cylinders. However since there was no change to the distribuotr all i used was a toggle sw. to switch back and forth between stock points and GM module. I could switch systems on the fly. IIRC the same switch can be used with the TFI.
