a blaster coil wont fix a weak distributor, whens the last time you replaced your coil cap rotor and wires?

Its preferential and depends upon the symptoms of the break up. Some people swear by the OEM setup (especially drag racing) while many others like myself find external coils and ignition systems are invaluable. You don't have to use M&W10 systems, but on H-T they are popular for their cost
