MSD Ignition – Blaster 2 Coil: High Performance Ignition Upgrade (Part No.8202)

Blaster 2 Coil: High Performance Ignition Upgrade

from

$49.99
If you are looking to upgrade your stock coil, or want to compliment the performance of your MSD blaster ignition, MSD 5, 6 or 7, the blaster coil line is the right choice. All of the blaster coils are designed for improved spark output. Special 100:1 windings are used to provide maximum build-up of voltage. These windings are held secure and kept cool in an oil filled metal canister. The tower assembly is molded of durable alkyd material due to its high dielectric characteristics while wide spaced brass primary terminals prevent the possibility of spark. There are several versions of the blaster coil available. All of them have the same internal specifications, but have different housings or components. Each blaster coil can be used with a stock ignition, blaster ignition, MSD 5, 6 or 7 ignition control. Most late model vehicles with electronic ignitions do not require a ballast resistor, check your ignition and manufacturers specifications to determine if a ballast is required in your application.

Product Features:
  • Improved output coil for electronic ignitions
  • Works w/Blaster Ignition Or MSD 5/6/7 Series
  • Ballast Resistor Required If Used w/Stock Points Ignition
  • Alkyd tower w/high dielectric properties lessens carbon tracking

NGK – Ignition Wire Set (Part No.F102088181NGK)

Ignition Wire Set

from

$69.64
NGK Resistor Spark Plug Wire Sets utilize a construction method known as variable pitch wire winding to create resistance to radio frequency interference. The variable pitch winding (loose/tight/loose) provides suppression throughout a very wide range by scrambling and breaking up the electrical waves radiated by the firing of the spark plugs. A ferrite magnetic layer consisting of a mixture of rubber, plastic and powdered ferrite magnetic materials, offers uniform resistance and unsurpassed conductivity. NGK wires have a lower resistance than conventional carbon core wires (8k ohm/meter versus 16k ohm/meter). This comparison is important to remember when you consider that many manufacturers recommend wires be replaced when the resistance exceeds 20k ohm/meter. This does not leave much margin for wear when the wire may only meet original standards at the very early stages of its life.

Product Features:
  • OE-Equivalent.
  • OEM style connectors for easy Installation.
  • Superior Firing and Fuel Savings
  • Outstanding Durability and Performance
  • Excellent Noise Suppression
  • Numbered for easy cylinder identification.
  • High quality EPDM and Silicone coverings.
