MSD COIL UPGRADE

Post by crashnburn »

So I just picked up a MSD coil 8239 flat terminal. I have a 91 SS and i just put in NGK iridium plugs. I currently have magnecor 8.5mm wires on it and was questioning if these wires will fit or do i need to buy a different set?

From the pictures I saw online, it looks like you will need different plug wires

From what I have read, and tried to find out, you would need to use different plug wires. With NGK wires, the stock coil would use the FX31, and with the MSD you would use the FX61, if what I have looked at is right.

So I'm guessing that you have the Magnecor 45180 now, and I think you would need the 45277 for the MSD.
