Harold, why would you put something in between "old" stuff to get some gain, when replacing old parts with better performing parts will really improve? I have replaced coil and cables by Johns 40kV coil and MSD cables. Result: 2 more kilometers per liter (approx 5 Mi per gallon). Furthermore my car has more spunk even at lower speeds, but performs awfully better at higher rpms. I guess a quarter mile now probably would bring blush on muscle cars now :D And I have to agree on Johns prices: Nology over here (Europe) costs some 400 US Dollar! My set from John only 172 including shipping. I rest my case.
