dJ 123, I went with a msd6a box , billet distributor and a blaster coil . At 150000 miles this was the most noticable modificaton done. That included a super chip ,kand N FIPK. TR

You can put the MSD boxes on and still use the other OEM ignition stuff (coil, distributor, wires ) but the MSD distributors are easy to tune for total timing and advance curves.
