I installed a MSD 6A and two blaster coils for the lead. I noticed much better throttle response, but it only came out to 4 hp on the dyno, after spending $300. Oh well.

4rwhp is pretty good from simple ignition upgrades I think.

So you ended up getting those Coil Packs?

I'm wondering If their Is any Issues with the Blaster Coil Packs and a Crane Cams Ignition Box?

What was the part#? From Sumitt?

Check that old thread we were on, "NA dyno results" or something. Jeff W. had listed the part numbers. I was trying to get rid of that breakup if you remember, but it didn't work.
