The resto coil from Mopar performence is discontinued and i haven't found any one who still has one in stock. After reading this post i'm glad i didn't find one and spend the money. Right now i have the stock repo restoration coil with chrome box with .25 ohm resistor and blue race regulator. car runs great. I know a lot of people will say not to use the blue regulator on the street but i've been useing them for years with no problems. But i will admit i don't go on 300 mile road trips either. Not much choise when trying to stay stock looking.




What is stock looking about the blue race regulator?

OP, while we wait for an answer on the coil question a suggestion, ditch the orange box. driven hard and often is not what the orange box is really designed for. if you want to stick with a MP product that will be plug and play with your harness, step up to the chrome box. i personally use MSD but alot of guys use the chrome as it's rated for higher rpm usage.




I have a box that I purchased several years ago from Don @ FBO. He swears it is much better than ANY Mopar brand box. It is mounted on my other car which is not being used at this time. I'm thinking about using the FBO box with the Mallory Promaster coil(#29440). What do you guys think about that combo?

Keith - By any chance have you tested the old style Accel Supercoil with a chrome box? Uglyest coil on the planet but seems to work just fine.

What ballast resistors are you using in your testing? Sometimes different coil and ecu combos like different resistors.


In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.

Not that you ever have anything good to say about anything it's not stock looking. I'm not a numbers matching concours correct guy. I just like to keep them as stock looking as i can. A holley Street dominatot and holley carb aren't stock either but with intake painted engine color it still has a stock apperence. I'd be amazed John if i ever saw you say anything positive about anything on here. You allways have to bad mouth or talk down every post.

i don't think that's where he was going with his question. there is a MSD blaster coil that is black and all you have to do is peel off the label and you have 'stock appearing'. my car is far from stock but i do try a little to make thing under the hood sorta stockish.
