Message:
I've already replaced my plugs and wires. So to complete the system all i need is a better cap & rotor and coil correct? Also is it pretty easy to replace the cap,rotor,and coil?

Thanks,
Thomas

If you want a "complete" ignition system, then you will also need an ignition box (MSD/Accel) depending on your application (N/A or forced induction).

The cap and rotor are a direct replacement from stock. The coil will depend on what brand you buy. I believe with MSD, you have to keep the stock coil but use it's harness for the MSD coil which you have to mount near it. If you go with Accel, it will be a direct replacement.

Don't forget to gap the plugs accordingly.

Thanks for the input swing and mike. It sure is a tight fit, i took the air hat off of the TB when i was changing out the plugs because i couldnt get my big hands back there. Thanks for the offer mike. Im going up to the dealership today to see what kind of a deal i can talk them into for some 17" RT rims.
