MSD ignition ....

hello all. This isnt a question or anything, but id like to say that im going to buy an msd ignition system here very shortly to put on my 5.0 sbc. Here is one thing ive heard. It doesnt add that much HP, but it adds a bunch of low end torque. ill let yall know what i think here shortly when i get the motor in my 88' camaro.

Re: MSD ignition ....

It won't really add anything in line of performance gains but will provide alot of benefits to all around driving. Like better MPG and easier start as well as smoother idle and accelleration.

Formula is right MSD's only improve your spark to get a better burn of the air fule mix. They work well I know because I have a 6AL, which has a few other goodies.

Not 2 much but I have it on a 500hp 355, that I take to the track all the time.But on a stock camaro it might give u about 5 more MPG.
