If installing to a points distributor or a non-current-limiting ignition system without an MSD ignition, a 0.8-ohm ballast resistor (MSD PN 8214) is required in series with any factory resistors on the positive coil wire.
Compliance: This coil carries California Air Resources Board (CARB) Executive Order EO# D-40-37, making it legal for sale and use on Emissions Controlled Vehicles in all 50 states when installed per MSD's application guide.
FAQ
Is the MSD 82073 Blaster SS coil legal for street use in California?
Yes. It carries CARB EO# D-40-37, making it legal for sale and use on Emissions Controlled Vehicles in all 50 states per MSD's application guide.
What ignitions is the Blaster SS coil compatible with?
MSD 6 and 7-Series ignitions as well as other electronic ignition systems.
Do I need a ballast resistor to install this coil?
Only if installing to a points distributor or a non-current-limiting ignition system without an MSD ignition — in that case, a 0.8-ohm ballast resistor (MSD PN 8214) is required in series with any factory resistors on the positive coil wire.
What voltage and current does the Blaster SS coil produce?
Up to 40,000 volts and 300 milliamps of current when used with an MSD 6-Series ignition.
