Question about this... When we sold my wife's Civic, I pulled off most of the performance stuff. One of the things she had installed is an MSD 6A ignition. I played with the idea of installing this in the bus, but became pretty leary pretty quick....... I remember that this ignition helped her car run MUCH better. Nice and smooth. Is it feasible to install this in the van? Anyone with some experience on this?
