FAQ
What ignition does this coil work with?
It is designed specifically for use with MSD's Pro 600 Capacitive Discharge Ignition, PN 8000, and wires directly to the Pro 600 CDI harness.
How much spark energy does this coil produce?
Over 200 millijoules of spark energy, making it well suited to methanol, ethanol, E85, and forced induction or power adder combinations.
Does this coil require special grounding?
Yes. It includes a 3rd terminal that should be grounded to the cylinder heads; failure to properly ground it can cause ignition unit failure.
How is this coil mounted?
It ships with hardware that allows mounting in either a horizontal or vertical position.
