MSD ignition coil replaced the factory coil with a 48K volt MSD coil. the factory one was pitted or something on the end going to the distributor. i swapped in the dark in a poorly lit parking lot. it was 10* and i didn't have gloves. and it was still as easy as a changing my airfilter.
the truck revs much smoother now and it sounds less like it's dieing at high RPM.
