You guys are costing me $$$, LOL!!
I just bought the Wynjammer, picked up an MSD 6A and now need recommendations for a coil and wires to go with everything.
(it is a 2000 4.3 L35 H.O. Vortec)
I also picked up a set of NGK TR6 plugs, everything sound right so far?
Anything else I "need"?
Thanks for the help everyone!!!
(this is going to be fun, LOL!!:)

No advice here. But spending bucks is what modding is all about.

Is it firing without problems now? If it is, dont bother! So called high output aftermarket coils are not what they used to be , difference wise. Since emissions and other factors have come about, factory coils exceed 38K volts without a problem. Wires also while they may be a little restrictive ohms wise, they go 100K today which was something in the older days that was never done. Also ohm resistance to a wire really means nothing unless you running nitromethane and must have every volt you can get. Thats just a common sensed approach to sales, tey found something the wire can actually do over another and promote it. If you have very little resistance in a wire and the spark plug doesnt use the full power, which it never does, it rebounds back up the wire specially if you use a non resistor plug. Then what do you have, a fried coil, wires going bad faster than they should or a toasted ignition module. Electricity must find a path to ground and firing electricity down the same path and a rebound, it'll really find the weakest link fast and ake that now a problem!

No problems "now", however, I do not have the S/C installed yet and have the MSD 6A and wanted to make all the changes at one time..., well, one install at a time but all in the same week:)
Thanks!
