They want work with my digital box so I have no need for two of them.

I'll shoot you if it will !!!

MSD told me I had to buy http://www.summitracing.com/parts/MSD-8261/?rtype=10
because of the clean signal the digital box needed.

That's not the bad part. When I went to put it on it slipped out of my hand. I caught it as it hit the header. I said :shock: glad I caught that and set it on the work bench. little while later I bolted it in and went to hook up the wires. Well I broke one of the crappy little post off when it hit the header. MSD said no fixin it.
So I threw $125 in the trash.

I would have rather not known that coil would work on the digital box. Now I'm even more mad at my dumb %#$ and MSD too.

Please tell me you are joking. Even if it is a lie :wink: :wink: I've wasted $ 250 + shipping if your not.

Hope you miss ... but yes it works fine. I've used them on several cars with digital 7 ignitions, gas, alky, blow thru carbs, all the way upto 1600hp procharger setups.

MSD tells everyone they wont work, but they work just fine. Havent had one fail yet, keep one for a spare :)

Good to know. I have two of them so I'll still send one to fast75vega.
