Msd coil packs
I plan to swap out my wires over the winter, and I am creating a list of things to do. One being replace the coil packs, I was thinking about MSD but are they worth it? If not what would you recommend?

Re: Msd coil packs
I have been told the MSD units can fail. I went with GM OEM units.

ZR. I'm still using them 5 years later. Have never had a hiccup w them. Used MSD ignition and CD stuff in my 84 for 10 years. IMO, they work great for startup and solid ignition right thru 7500rpm.

Re: Msd coil packs
Been runnig MSD coils for serveral years now with no issues. Not sure they perform any better spark wise than OEM coils however, the red color goes well.
