I removed my plugs and just stuck the plug wire ends in thru the spark plug hole. Gets the spark directly in the cyls w/o having to pass thru current robbing sparkplugs. Eliminate the middle man! Plus I no longer have that resistance of the piston to come to the top during the comp stroke. Motors spins easier and faster now. = faster rpms = faster mph

Any of you guys switch over to glow plugs? I hear it really bumps up the torque, but I'm not sure my Alpha drive on my 454 can handle the increase.....

50/50 Mix of diesel and gas will bump compression.
