Using magnetic heading synchro inputs are part of 10.1.0.0 update. Again this won't be the heading bug, only magnetic heading. This will only work if you have synchro outputs on your HSI (as Gring states not all HSI's have this). In addition it needs to be wired up per the 10.1.0.0 install manual.
As for the 60-2, if tuned up and the Turn Coordinator is within spec it's a solid AP. That said, I had my roll servo, pitch computer and turn coordinator all OH'd in the last year.... Sigh.
I also installed the ST901 when I got my IFD540s, and it's one of those items I regret not doing when I upgraded to WAAS 7yrs ago.
