Ingition system upgrade
Now that I have some money, I was thinkin bout upgradin the ignition system. I was gonna get the MSD Blaster TFI coil and Ford racing 9mm plug wires. Should I get a better cap and rotor, or will the stocker be good enough? Does this sound like a good setup? Is the ignition worth upgradin, or should I save my money? Is there any benefit, like more HP and gas mileage? Obviously I wont get a 30mpg and 20 more hp.

Personally, I'd get an MSD cap and rotor. That's what I'm running, and I like it better than the stock one (not to mention I can get it for less $). I bought two caps and two rotors from summit racing for 40 including shipping. One cap at NAPA is right around 25 bucks. With new plugs, wires, cap, rotor, and blaster TFI coil, (and an exhaust) my mileage went from about 12 when I bought the truck to right around 15.
