Default Re: #6 not firing with eBay HEI, any ideas?

Nothing beats an electronic ignition. If you vie for points you clearly haven't used one. HEI will give miles and miles of maintenance free performance and will ignite all the fuel in the head chamber. After market HEI dist can have junk parts, make sure to use a GM module, cap and rotor. Also, spiral core spark plug wires should only be used. My brother in law just switched over to HEI in his 305 v6 and was blown away how well if worked, instant start, better performance. Points are cool if your're die hard original but they are a thing of the past.. with all the perf upgrades with added ignition control like MSD and now AFR gauges to really dial it in I would have an old carb car or truck over any fuel injected crap today...
