i just installed msd 6a into my stang and im not sure if i can tell it is working. i think it might be psychology if i say it works and i installed it then i think im feeling more power. can i pull off a plug wire and see multiple sparks or could i install a little light somewhere to let me know its on?

Does the car start and run? If so, chances are that.....it's working!

i called tech support real quick and he said everything is hooked up right. just that i had to open my plug gap alot thanks alex yes it runs . since i cant find an aftermarket distributer i went with 7.5 mm wires and im ordering the blaster 2 coil. this is a 200ci thats why i guess.

start the car. hold a plug wire in your hand and count the number of times it hits you each time it fires!!! thats a dead giveaway as to whether its working or not!! ------------------ mike r racing is real everything else is just a game. 81 capri-7.47 @90mph 1/8 1.54 60 ft. http://www.angelfire.com/ny5/billswebsite/pg06.html
