I'm sure that any brand of performance coils will produce a strong spark. This company (Accel) has been in business for a long time, as well as MSD, Jacobs, Moroso, etc. just to name a few performance coil brands. Here is a picture of the one in the link:

Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy is my wife going to be mad at you for posting this....I can hear it now.."You bought another (insert choice adjetive here) thing for that (insert another choice adjetive here) truck?" I asked MSD if they had a replacement for the stock ford ones and they said no. I thought about making one from 6 coils, it is easy enough to do. I am glad to see that Accel is offering one. I plan to upgrade the ignition system from stock to MSD next year. It will be cost about 400 if I can get the controller from ebay and the 2 adapters and this coil pack should work good with it.

Ahhh the old diversionary tactic.


Then there is the "I'm just replacing a part that is about to go bad." That works a couple of times per vehicle and only on under hood parts.

yeah it works alright if you use the stock wires but to get an actual difference you need to upgrade the wireset also i bought the 10mm ones off of summit cant remember the maker anymore but they are the only ones that make it. also to top it all off i ran the e3 diamond fire spark plugs not only did i notice a giant jump in gas mileage but good increase in power also
