MSD coil vs ACCEL
MSD coil vs ACCEL
The accell appears to have better stats...
Lower resistance... higher turns

Mallory says its only good untill 5500... and doesnt post stats

Re: MSD coil vs ACCEL

it doesnt have a super high voltage number...
but look at that spark time...

I too have had problems with Accel coils in the past.They were on par with MSD up to about 10 years ago now it's not the case.

Re: MSD coil vs ACCEL
I don't know if they make one for these cars or not, but I've always liked Crane. I put one of their PS91 coils in my truck and I've been happy with it so far.
Of the two you posted though, I'd choose the MSD.

Re: MSD coil vs ACCEL
I would just buy the stock replacment. unless you have a bunch of mods that require a higher voltage to fire the cylinders, then the extra money you are spending for a coil that has the capability of releasing more energy is going to waste.
Coils only put out the amount of energy required to fire a cylinder and complete the burn. No more, no less, and unless you are reving past 5500rpm, which is where our stock engines run out of breath anyway, then getting a coil that is capable of faster saturation is pointless anyway.
