  • Ignition coils.......Stock, Accel, MSD, or Jegs?

    i was wanting yuor opinions on what coil to go with, its time to replace them and if ill benefit a lil from an aftermarket one its worth it to me. they arent much more. opinions are welcome! TIA!

    msd are the prefered coils on this board. i used accel on my 3.4 and loved them. but a few people said that theyve had them explode on them. i know of at least ten people that had them that didnt have any problems.

    but if i had to do it again id probably go with msd.

      You won't really see much benefit unless you're running nitrous or some other power adder.

      You're best to go with just a stock autozone or the like replacement...

      psst: I went 14.6 with 2 stockers and an autozone special replacement [img]tongue.gif[/img]

                  I suggest MSD coils. Accel coils are decent, but I had a lot of problems with them reacting to moisture.

                    i've had accel for a while and never had a problem. i think they're $35 from summit. summit makes a coil thats only $33 and supposedly comparable to msd.

                          At the end of Part Three, we changed the valvetrain of the 3.8-liter V6 in the Tom Henry RS. We installed new, Yella Terra "Ultralite" 1.8:1, aluminum roller rocker arms, Katech valve springs and Katech titanium retainers on our 3800 Series II V6.
                          Ultralites are nearly 25% lighter than the stock 1.6 rockers and 8% lighter than the SLP aluminum...
