Has anyone tried a MSD or Accel performance ignition coil in place of the stock bosch one on a L-Jet GTV6?

Does anyone know what the internal resistance of the coil is? (provided I'm remembering that there is no ballast resistor correctly)

Thanks,
Scott

ps : I did try searching this but didn't find anything

i belive the msc blaster ss coil requires an .08 resistor or something like that...id be more curious about replaceing the ignition box with a AL6

Ican't do all that as I live in the Peoples republic of California. I can do the coil though and msd has 3 different blaster 2 coils for different ignition systems. I'm just trying to figgure out which coil to use.

personaly id use the SS coild as its a solid state unit designed to go into gm hei dizzy's...ive got one running on my 69 cuda 360 tunnel ram dual 4brl and love it..a friend has been running one on a race built 22r toyota calica that i built for about 5 years now...there great coil's but your going to need a new mount if you want to run one..well worth the effort imo

Hey, cool! Someone else here has a Cuda.

Mine's a 70 318 car with a 440 4bbl, 727 and will actually go around a corner and stop more than once. Its also where I first put a hot coil (a blaster 2) . It has the mopar perf electronic ignition conversion too.

What about Crane Hi-6S. I used a Crane DI2 unit mounted in engine bay. You could smell the ionization. Worked with no problems for years.

Offers multispark cap discharge with only mild to moderate current draw. Also has rev limiter, tach output, and other safety feature built in. The 6S is under 200$ with coil.

I have a Chevy Cavalier Z24 (actually, it's my wife's) It does have a DOHC 2.4L v6. Maybe it will fit the Alfa????? Parts are much cheaper...

my complete list of toys altho some are incomplete is quite insane..like my 70 dodge camper special that i narrowed 18 inches as well as shortened in length..a 58 lloyd alexander ts wagon that im fitting a 2.5 turbo into the rear ..58 ford custom 300 my fishys 69 a108 72 ramcharger...my baby 69 1/2 cuda 360 tunnel ramed dual 4s with 5'33 gears out back full manual 727 she's a straight line riot..bringing home an 'owed' 75 celica that im planing to v8

alternate ignition coil
