High performance ingintion?

[Trenton Sauer]

I was wondering how much it would benefit me to install a performance coil I was looking at getting the Screaming demon from Davis Ignition. And performance spark plug wires, and also widen my spark plug gap. Has anyone installed this coil? please let me know id like to know how this will benefit my power.

I drive a 1993 Chevy 1500 with a 350 5 speed.

Why do you want to widen your gap? Without any other performance mods, i see no point in changing the ignition at all.

I use this type of HEI .you have to change the 4 pin plug on the truck side. And then I get a brass terminal cap and rotor. High voltage coil

Total waste of time, money, effort, and enthusiasm unless what you have now is faulty. If the parts you're replacing aren't defective, you'll never notice a difference in the way the truck runs.

Well, OK, you widen the gap too much, and you're going to misfire and cook the catalyst.

Have you changed anything else on your truck? or built it at all?

This. It'd be much simpler to light the money on fire.

Save your money and effort. The stock ignition is more than adequate for your engine and you will gain nothing with a "performance" ignition. In fact most of the crap out there sold as "performance" parts for ignition are unreliable garbage that will leave you stranded when you least expect it.

Stay stock, buy quality stock replacement parts, keep it in good shape and that will net you the best results for your investment. Believe it or not...
