Stop in for a cup of coffee

I want to put together a off the shelf combo that will be bullet proof and better than MSD crap made now. Have to beat the hell out of it. I have a spare hei coil from the Dakota I want to try but need to get a pigtail somewhere. $40 at RA! No way.
Fighting the problem that all replacement parts are made to low standards. Its not just mopar ECUs. Five years ago people were hunting NOS GM HEI modules. I'm sure it hasn't got any better.

Remember this alternator? Output stud came loose 'cause the insulator was made cockeyed.
GM part number but not GM.
AC Delco, now just a brand name. Genuine Junk.

Damn lucky it didn't short the main circuit and blown the fusible link.
:mad:

I know, I know it would have been the ammeter's fault. :rolleyes:
