i just read several places that the ignition modules that are aftermarket do not have the proper timing curve built in and do not do base mode correctly. Is this true? I have tried a cheap aftermarket as well as ACDelco d1964a. Both perform exactly the same. Neither either leaves base mode or simply don’t enter it. Wtf?

To all pros out there. Nobody mentioned that there are two types of est ignition modules for the 3.0. Same part number but different breed. The one ending in a stamped number 369 is automotive only with a timing curve that does not advance until 2400 rpm and then maxed out around 4000 rpm. The one stamped with a 399 is used for marine and some high performance uses with the correct curve.
Runs perfect now. Plus the automotive one has no base mode.
