Question Should I put MSD ignition in my 85 Gt

Right now im happy with the power of my 5.0 but was just wondering if I will gain any hp or acceleration and wut not from adding MSD, I hear all this "Oh ya man def put msd in that it will be sick, gain some hp," but im a little skeptical. SO that basic question is: Is msd worth the money and will i see a signifigant change in performance?

In case you need to kniw my 5.0 mods:
Edelbrock hi rise
Carburated
Comp Camp rockers
comp cam
Under pulley
3.73 gears
shorty headers
x-pipe

Unless your combination is not in a good state of tune as is, you're see little or no gain from a CD ignition.

i think it was a good investment on my 91, it helped with gas mileage and hp and not by just a little there was a noticeable difference
