MSD Blaster Question
I want to replace my stock coil and am looking at the MSD Blaster model 8226. I have a stock ignition system. I don't think that I need any type of wiring harness, but just want to check with you guys.
are there any better options ?
thanks

Just out of curiosity, why do you want to do a coil upgrade? If the rest of the ignition is stock and the motor is stock, the OEM coil will put out more than enough power.
If you still have the original plug wires, then I would start there for improved power to the plugs. I installed a set of MSD SuperConductor wires on my old 92 vert and that alone made a big difference. New plugs will help too if the OEM plugs are still there.

I've got the blaster coil on my 92. Not sure of the part number, but 8226 does sound familiar. Not sure what the stock replacement costs, but I payed $43 for mine from summit. I've also got an MSD cap & rotor kit, taylor 8.2mm wires, and NGK plugs. I did quite a bit of other work at the same time, so can't say really if the ignition stuff would have made any difference on the stock motor.
Oh yeah, and no special plug, harness, or modification needed.
