Re: Educate me on Plug wires

I average around 19.5 to 20 MPG with a 5.7 liter, 700R4 truck and this is with a TBI fuel injection system. The truck has a good pull on acceleration and maintains a good power band on the highway. My plugs seem to last longer and the engine fires in any weather conditions.

I have gone through two of the MSD coils (due to them shorting out) and now I will no go back to them, they seem to be inferior to the factory Delco coils, so that is up to each and every one that purchases the products.
In relation to the above, I just heard the other day that MSD was using someone new to produce some of there stuff. A friend of mine was having problems with an ignition and didn't get it sorted out untill he tried 3 different boxes, all of which were new. In the past MSD always was always known for excellent products.
