5 out of 5 stars review
Wish I would have had long ago!
I have only driven the car a few times since installing. It is in a 79 Trans Am with a 403. I have owned the car for 16 years and it has never started so quick or run so smooth. I was apparently suffering from a weak spark without even knowing it.
