I believe that you cannot use solid core plug wires with any MSD ignition box...

I recommend getting an after-market ignition coil too...Depending on how bad the stock one is, some stock coils can not handle the extra voltage kicked out by the MSD...

You can get any coil you want. MSD blaster series and blaster 2 series coils are great. I have the blaster 2 in my car. Go with the MSD wires too. Super conductors or the Heli-core wires will suffice. and since you already have the distributor, your set dude. Oh yeah, get some good plugs too. NOT PLATINUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
