Well, depends on RPM , on a race engine turning 7500 you dont run a .065 gap, you run like .030.

The spark duration is longer with a narrow than a wide gap "usually"

Call it bad luck, bt my Jeep runs better with the OEM coils than these ones.  I think its because of the impedance, but not sure...

I had an accel on mine and went back to stock.  You could smell something Electrical Burning. and it would start misfiring.  Put the stock one back on and its ran great.

  I wanted the kit because of the better Distributor cap that it has.  As all I've found are the cheap ones with the Aluminum contacts on the inside.

Huh I have been running my accel coil for the last 7 years with no problem. Its amazing how some things work great for some and crappy for others.

I tore apart a Accell "Super Coil" a few years ago, it had a Echlin standard coil inside...

Cheers
