Well I have My MS-II Running pretty smooth and everything now, So I was wondering if I can raise the dwell settings a bit if I open the gap on the Plugs. My max dwell now is 3.9ms and I tried to gap the plugs @ .050" and the car would not start. I backed it down to .040" and the car started again and ran fine. I guess I also do not want to raise the dwell too much as to not burn the coil out.(unnecessary overheating)

I have a Single MSD Blaster 2 Coil and I am still using a Distributor for triggering / ign Distribution.

Thanks, Greg

Plug gap doesn't make much difference as long as it's in a decent range. I'd just leave them at 0.040".
