What would be a good replacement for the stock ignition coil? The aftermarket solutions are about as much as the stock replacement. So I would like to go that route. My main question is did it help starting? And how did you wire it up. Thanks!

How do you wire it? and I know it uses the ballast. But do you have to change any of the wires? And does it help with starting?

the SS blaster is better and makes it idle a bit better. little bit better throttler respones...and if you add the msd its 45,000 volts....WOOT....Ethier way works...

If you can't read instructions, you should have a shop do it.

I don't think I should be getting bashed for wanting pictures on how to do something correctly, and not wanting to mess my vehicle up. If I want to do something I want to do it right, and have all the knowledge of doing it so I do not hurt myself or the vehicle. It should be any mechanics goal to NOT hurt themselves or their vehicle.

But yes, the search thing doesn't ever work for me, because I don't use it on forums all the time. That's mainly my fault, but Vanilla, Ive seen you bash a lot of people around here for that, instead just suggest better searching methods, so it doesn't happen again. But seriously, you guys have the upper hand with that because youve been here a lot longer, on the F150s forums I was the same way. I knew where everything was and how to search for what I wanted. But this one is completely different.

Ease up. Your going to razzled here from time to time. But you'll get the help you need. Your new, and you have to remember that we get alot of the same questions over and over again.

Even " I searched and can't find it".

when you post something saying ( i allready looked and its not there) when it is there it kinda ticks me off... im normly not one to jump on people but you have to try to help yourself before you can ask for help. i know the search function is screwy on here but that thread was LISTED under the how-to section and stickied just so people like you can find it... hell i hadnt seen that thread in over 3 years so i just went and looked in the how to area and ba-boom there it was
