Not sure if this is the right place to post this but I did a quick look and didn't find a better place. So I just recently got done swapping my 305 out and I put a fairly stock 350 in it. The 350 ran great in the car i pulled it out of then I put it in my camaro and it runs alright untill it gets warm then it sounds like it misses a lot and eventually will only idle. I'll shut it off and it won't start for at least 30 mins so I took the coil off and I found that the bottom of it is kind of melted a bit and charred. It's a accel supercoil and a msd distributor. Could some one tell me what is happening and why?

 

There's supposed to be a rubber insulator underneath of that...looks like it's missing. I'd replace the coil with a quality replacement (AC Delco or similar). I ran a supercoil for a while and it gave me issues, put the stocker from GM performance back on, no noticeable performance differences.

 

Probably happening because of the missing ground strap.

 

Completely forgot about that.. thanks ill definitely put that on tomorrow. I just turned 17 and am learning on the way. Do you think I need a new coil? It didn't burn a hole in it or anything.

 

Meant to quote you on that reply.thanks for the help guys
