Kelle's '54 Chevy Truck Blog #6: Ignition

This time, we're upgrading Kelle's old ignition system with a swap-meet find, a vintage MSD box, which we're going to use to power the coil, rather than the power running through the ignition points. It also helps the coil by storing energy and relasing it as quickly as the coil needs the juice. However, when you find an old electronics part, how do you know it works? We show you how to test an MSD box with their Digital Ignition Tester to see what's up. Then, Kelle's 235 6-banger will enjoy the multiple spark benefits of the MSD, but it still looks old-school, 'cause it is.
