    Nice car, congrats on the purchase...

    I doubt the position of the coil makes a difference, Ford mounted them horizontally on the intake of big blocks without a issue... I've had a MSD in same place on my 428CJ for probably a dozen years or more...

    Thanks guys!!

    I agree that the Grabber Blue/black combo on my uncle's car is a hard combo to beat. I also like the look of the Weld Rodlite wheels on older hot rods

    Thanks!

    It actually drives pretty well with the mini-spool in it. I drove it 40 miles through the mountains to go to an 1/8 mile drag strip Friday night.
