Just ordered an MSD 6A, 3 Blaster 2 coils, and a single coil mounting bracket. I have "newish" stock NGK wires that I will be using for the time being, unless someone tells me otherwise. What else do I need to buy to get this thing running right? Yes I've searched, I'm just looking for different opinions here.

I dunno if the stock wires are long enough... maybe they are. I got some of those "trim and crimp" 8.5mm accels.

The rest is common sense: 14 gauge wire, misc connectors, some electrical grease, liquid electrical tape, a file, a drill, a wiring loom.

Oh, and get some Autolite plugs for your leading, but be prepared to change 'em with your oil. Heh.

NKG's hold up pretty well against my msd...

Maybe they do, but the Autolites are $.99 each, make more power, and will always be fresh if you change them every 3k miles.

I don't know why but the NGK's that I've seen in the states, and the ones I've seen back in japan don't look the same. Back in 2000 when I was stationed in japan, my friend bought a set of NGK plugs for his 1st gen that was back in the states. Soon as he got back he threw them into his 7(which by the way has a 4 port bridge). Fast forward to the present and he still has the same set in the motor. he's been checking them but they haven't fouled yet. I have never seen the four prong type spark plugs until I moved back to the states. I've seen the ones that look like they have a X carved in it but the only kind I've ever seen for a 1st gen has no X's cut into it.

Thats because those plugs that you see from the states sat for years on end and are basically over stock. I ordered a set of the 3 prong ones for my car to our store and the box must be 20 years old. I have seen the newer version ones with the X cut into them and they also came in a new pakage.

Four prong is BR8EQ-14 and the crosscut or 'X' or '+' cut with a smaller center electrode is BUR7EQ (higher number means colder plug).

Thanks for the info, but I'm a dumbass. If anyone could elaborate a little more, that'd be cool I should have all that stuff in my garage right now anyway, but yeah, a detailed list would be good.

Don't put the coild in sideways. They must be in the upright position for the oil inside of the coil to properly cool. Thats why I used three gauge bracket to use. I also used the magnecor 10mm wires (#R-100). There great and you can tell them to make them for a 3 coil setup.

The ones that I've seen at the parts stores in japan are like the ones you mentioned but without the X or +.
