Ignition Upgrades

Chad H · January 12, 2004

Hey guys,

I searched a little about the Direct Hits Ignition but couldnt find a whole lot. I am looking for something to increase power for towing but increase a gas mileage also. I just bought this truck a week ago. I have install a Borla side exit catback and a Volant intake. Any advice would be great!

Check MSD's website or Jacob's Electronics. I have a Jacobs Electronics ignition in my blazer....i've had it for about 4 years now, back when the engine was in better shape it gave me better power, better throttle response and about 3mpg. I paired it with their wires too. But that's on a 305 carb engine. What kinda truck do you have?

Sorry, I forgot to put that. I drive a 2004 Chevy Silverado Extended cab Z-71.

Folks:

Did a lot of research on ignition and found it really hard to improve on agreat system that the LSi has.

When I put headers on my 5.3L, I added MSD 8.5MM wires and Delco 41-932 plugs; they are one heat range colder. But if you really want some kick, get a predator or a Westers tune.

Just my dos centavos though!
