Does anyone know the volts on the stock diamond coils. I want to upgrade to the MSD blaster 3 coils but hear that the stock coils are really good as it is.

 

I know that the MSD coils produce 45,000 volts; but what about the stock ones?

 

I dont have no on hand experience with just the MSD coils but if you upgrade to DLIDFS, stock coils will do fine. In fact, I didnt notice a difference between stock and MSD blaster coils on a direct fire.

 

what the hell does DLIDFS stand for???

 

i think it's something like:
Dual Leading Ignition Direct Fire System....

 

Thanks for the Info wacky, In that case I think I'm just going to save some money and stick with the stock ones.

 

Daul Leading Ignighter Direct Fire Ignition System and its usually refered to as the DLIDFIS. I'm the creator of the Msd-DIS

 

IM using the MSD coils. I havent really compaired them to the stock one, but the disadvantage about the msd ones is they have to be mounted upright

im using blaster 2 coils. i think you have to use special plug wires to use the blaster 3 coils

 

Actually, I have been running direct fire using a MSD 6A with dual blaster coils mounts horitzontally. It has been over 5 years with no problem. pix of my old engine. with the new engine, Im just running a stock NGK wires. Had a problem with a new magnecor but a stock NGK cured the problem

 

diamonds put out about 12,000 at best most put between 8-9,000

 

The blaster coils have been known to crap out and explode or something of that sort when mounted horizontally. I think wacky just got a set of good coils.

 

i see that nasty little evil piece of filtering technology called a fram filter on that sweet engine.. you should get rid of that before its too late

 

Coils do get weaker with age you know? Uh, no matter who made them. Just a concideration.

Too many people use stock components well after their use by date, complain they are inefficient, buy a pricey aftermarket component which works because its new, and so become a convert for life.

 

Until anyone can show me systematic failure from a particular brand of oil filter (nobody has, or can) I wont buy that sort of statement.

Gotta prove something sucks, before you can call something better.

 

Get the epoxy filled version, not the oil one.
