Im running a MSD digital 6 plus on the leading and a DIS-2 on the trailing. I have replaced both the leading and trailing. Not 100% sure how i am going to set it ip but i have some ideas. Id love to see some pics of the coils mounted on the Fenderwall or where the A/C bracket once was.

I mounted mine on the finder wall infront of my plugs. I dont have any a/c or really anything to get in my way so it wasnt that hard for me.

The way I have mine wired right now everything plugs into the stock drivers side harness, with the ignitor in place. Im fairly sure you need the ignitor cause it tell the coils when to fire as the CAS tells it where it is.

I welded a bracket to the BMK stock location battery case so that I would have two really tough lead coils (CraneCams LX91s) that wouldn't get burned up by the Jacobs RotaryPack ignition amp (which tore up two expensive stock lead coils).

Can you post on how to wire the 2 MSD coils? I have some breaking up at high rpm with 14psi and I was thinking of going with MSD, since I dont' have 500 for HKS twin power one.

The HKS is a CDI (ignition amp) which isnt the same thing as a coil..

The AEM CDI is alot cheeper then the HKS...I got mine for 350 bucks.
