MSD ignition
 

I was thinking about putting a MSD ignition (I'm not set on the MSD brand, thats just the one I could think of for an example) on my bone stock 1996 SS. I've got a couple questions for you guys who know about this stuff:

1 - what system would be ideal for me (daily driver)

2 - how much is it going to help the performance of my car

3 - how hard is it to install (is there "plug and play" convience?)

4 - what would be some good componets to install to compliment the system

as far as performance, i doubt you notice anything. however, msd says you get: quick starts and smooth idle, instant throttle response, improved high rpm pull, and reduced spark plug fouling. the basic model is for a relatively mild setup. this is the 6200. they also make some higher models that have a rev limiter setting and others offer adjustable amounts of retard for boost pressure. they do make a wiring harness that makes it easier to install. however, my friend has one on his 87 iroc 350 and i think there was only three wires coming off the msd box. i don't know if you need any other components to go with one of these boxes or not. i would just say make sure your plugs, wires, coil, and opti is in good condition. what part of kentucky are you from? there is a msd dealer in Louisville, bowling green, ashland, lexington, and pikeville in kentucky. if you are by any of these places, let me know and i will give you their # and address and that way you can call them or stop by and let them answer any other questions.

I'm right outside of Bowling Green, it would be great if you could tell me the dealer # and address! Thanks for the helpful information

the dealer in bowling green is called Scotty's Speed & Custom

2418 Scottsville Road
Bowling Green, KY 42104

the # is 270-842-0646

good luck
