MSD Cap & Rotor?

Hey, I am thinking of selling my accel cap & rotor and going with an MSD just cause everything else on the iginition is MSD, might as well go with the cap & rotor too. Does anyone here run a MSD cap & rotor on their distributor? Anyone wanna buy my accel cap & rotor? only 9 months old.

Thanks guys

Eric, I was wondering the same thing. All of my stuff is MSD but I did not know it I would see a difference in just changing the cap and rotor at all let alone getting an MSD.

Will do. I just sold my Accel cap & rotor, the MSD stuff is not in stock, so I have to wait. My MSD coil should be in today though so thats cool. I will keep ya posted.

Hey EROCK, besides the flames coming out of the bores, the engine ran REAL smooth. I installed that MSD blaster Coil and MSD Cap & Rotor, good little igition mod. Of course the wires help out a lot too but I just thought I would post and tell ya it was all good cause u wanted to know.

there are other conductors that are better than gold I think.
as far as i know, i think brass is above copper and below gold.

Hmm, not really sure, u should e-mail or post that question in the Aftermarket Product part, I know there is an MSD Tech guy there right from the MSD Company. He would know for sure.
