MSD 6AL and coil installed!

Well, I finally did it.. I moved the MSD 6AL box from my room to my car! I also installed a Blaster SS ignition coil.

The car feels great! It feels more eager to "go", and seems to take off faster from a stop. The car also revs up faster when it's in neutral.

I can't give you more results yet. All of a sudden, I have bad wires going between my MAF sensor's connector, and the MAF relay's connector. If I wiggle them, the car runs fine until I drive over a bump... at which point it almost stalls, and the SES light pops back on. I'll have to hit the junkyard for another set... probably Wednesday.

Oh- my Sun tachometer still works. I left it connected to the factory harness, and have no problems. Too bad; I wanted to buy an Autometer one to replace it! Maybe I will anyway...
