Thanks,

turbo_canuck said:rag231, i used a new msd billett one, pn# MSD-8551.
HellOnWheels, It was a surprisingly easy swap, i pulled the coil + module, cam sensor and msd dis4 box. Next, i ordered a distributor- listed above, ($346.88), a set of wires-pn#MSD-31199 ($87.88), an msd coil- pn#MSD-8261 ($139.88) and a 7al2plus box- pn#MSD-7222 ($542.88). From cal hartline, i ordered a dead-end connector plug, which bolts to the harness where the stock ignition module used to go, and a jumper that plugs into the cam sensor plug and the distributor. i had to cut off 5 of the 6 reluctor tabs on the distributor shaft to give a cam signal, plug it in, then point it at #1 while the engine was at 25*, before tdc. the install of the other components was pretty straightforward, and the car started right up. all i had to do was verify timing with a light that the fast was seeing proper timing. it's not that easy with an xfi, or other systems as i've read. but that's pretty much it with an old fast sequential like mine.

Yes, you do lock out the advance on the MSD dist.

Or double check them all the time
so far i have seen 3 sets come out and it usually tears up the cap and rotor
if it jumps out at high RPM
KLHAMMETT said:Not sure,But it happened to Tony Gomes at reynolds last year,He lifted at the end of a pass and the car shut off.
I just had a Drag Radial mustang on my dyno and at 7300 it popped and shut off,Sure enough pull off the cap and one screw is laying there and the rotor was all broken up

norbs said:Not sure on the IAC, i use the Dale Cherry IAC adapter, lots of clearance! The bracket and tensioner needs to be modded, pretty good.

turbobuick said:Norbs,
Do you have a IAT sensor stuffed into the IC hose or is the pic decieving?
