    Looks good. I think I am having coil issues too. Car feels sluggish when engine bay gets hot and it dropped half the engine twice - once at the track and again when driving home in the rain. Both times engine came back to full power on restart. Which MSD coils did you use? Were they a simple drop in replacement?

    Nicely done Bryan. I'm also beginning to suspect that one of my coils could be causing issues - though I need to diagnose further as there could be several reasons for some hot running misfiring that I've experienced lately. Anyway, which one of the MSD universal sets did you use (e.g. part #31189 or #31199)? Thanks!
