i've heard good things but, i've never used one myself. it seems like what could go wrong, its just better spark more often? famous last words? maybe.

It'll work. If you search the board, theres instructions on how to wire it up. After I installed the MSD, my alternator needed to be upgraded to a 2nd gen. There wasn't enough power to raise the headlights when I'd turn them on!

The MSD works great. I have one on my car simply because the leading igniters went out on mine but the trailing ones were good. But anyway the car runs like a dream. definatley buy.

Didn't plainfield just get dominated by some tornadoes, or damn near tornadoes?
