You were right Jass...+ a question...

[BB71Challenger]

I went ahead and purchased the 8.8 accel 300+ wires today. They seem like they are put together well. It has been a while since I did a cut to fit but instead of being an annoyance like it used to be, I will end up with a better fit and will not be stuck running the wires a certain way. Now all I need is a good 6AL to light the fires Oh well, I guess I will just have to stick with the old mopar perf. electronic ignition for now. Now on to the question, is the chrome or gold box worth the coin? or should I just save the dimes for a good ignition? Can you tell I just added the question on the end of this thread? :shifty:

You were right Jass....

:doh: Oh jeez, don't do that, now we have to listen to the gloating.

I bought the 300+ wires for my car under his advisement and I was very happy with them as well.

I'd probably stick with the MP ignition (if you have it) or the stocker until you can swing the 6AL or similar (I know a couple of guys who've been very happy with the Crane HI-6 as well).

The MP chrome box is a nice piece, but it doesn't have the technology of the newer stuff; the gold box won't last very long in street use as it runs very hot and will actually burn itself up... sort of a short-burst, high-RPM-only piece.

Don't skimp on the coil, either. I've had very good luck with MSD's various Blasters, as well as the Crane PS91 and PS92. I prefer the e-core style of coils... no oil to leak out, and they seem more resistant to heat and abuse. Several friends have had good luck with Mallory coils though I've never used one personally.

My recommendation for anything made by Accel stops at the 300+ wires... I've never had good luck with anything else they make. :huh:

which came first........the super coil or restrictive wires to sell more super coils?
