I have an Accel coil, I did hear about them being more often then not, bad however mine has been working alright for last year. I have the Mopar cap and rotor, not sure if that is brass or not, mopar 7.5s (popped out of their stock holders and melted a little) and NGK plugs. I just ordered the summit 8.0 blues, for 40 bucks with s&h and wire holders seemed like a good choice. I will update in a couple years, lord knows how much time and money I sunk into this truck it ain't going nowhere heh.
