1. Operates at speeds up to 10,000 RPM

WOW - Never thought that was possible with a factory ignition coil , ballast and a Orange Box with all this talk today

LOL



Anyways , for the most part they want your FACTORY Part # 1.4 - 1.6 OHM Ignition Coil along with the FACTORY .5 OHM Ballast Resistor

Plug Gaps @ .035

Then in notes toward the bottom they talk for even more hotter spark throw the garbage can size Accel Super Coil .7 OHM Primary Resistance and their matching .85 OHM Ballast Resistor

Thanx for the instructions - Appreciate it

Back in the good old days of Made In The USA

Mopar Performance had a lot of this info inside there books , just worded a little different with all of the different Ignition Modules

The instructions were clear all this time?
This is yet another example of how some people (myself included) have somehow blindly made their way through things relatively unscathed while deviating from solid advice and guidelines. I never thought about OHM ratings or compatibility. I just grabbed stuff and used it while not even knowing that there was a difference.
It is a curious thing that a man gets older and realizes how much he doesn’t know.
Thanks, Padam.

My pleasure.
If anybody wants high resolution copies, just give me your email in a PM.

I also realize everyday, how much there is that I don't know.
It seems like the hobby was much simpler 40 years ago
