What year 12A?
Which carb set-up?
Racing exhaust or street legal?

Don't bother with the MSD, do this instead....read the whole acticle and it'll explain why it's better.
Why the electric fan?

Depending on the size of the street port and provided you get a GOOD carb and exhaust you should make around 180 to 200hp at the flywheel.
