I'm looking at replacing my spark plugs and coils. I'm thinking either MSD or Accell. Which one do you guys prefer or do you have another recommendation. Thanks

 

Jbrew has offered this suggestion quite a few times. When I need them, I'll be buying them from ebay.

Quite a few members , including myself has had good luck w/these. -

If your not having a miss problem,,,,your better off keeping the stock ones!

Stay away from Accell like the PLAGUE!!! I dont care much for MSD either. It does seem like most of the performance aftermarkets are crud, and dont last long. I have bought several times off Ebay from a seller named "Global,..something?" They are like $100. for a set of eight, then get a set of the solid stainless 0ohm connectors and silicone boots.also $100. I only found them thru RPM Outlet. Some people claim issues with them, but I have made a few purchases from them with no problems.

PS, for the love of god do not use Bosch platnum plugs!!!!!!! As a mechanic I have come across so many engine miss problems from them, where the electrode simply dissapeared. I use Motorcraft regular platnum plugs ,never a failed plug yet. I now have to back to Autolite resistors due to my Jacobs DIS ignition in my 97 4.6.
