5kcstq differences, Ignition stuff.
Hello,
I was wondering if anyone knew what major differences were between
the 86-88 5000cstq cars? Which is the most desirable year to own? I
currently own a 1980 5ks with 200,000 miles and am getting ready to
upgrade to a 87 5kcstq.
Also, I recently put a set of MSD ignition wires, a 45,000v coil, and
gapped the plugs to about .045in on the 80 5k. I have noticed a great
increase in the upper rpm range and have gained a small percent in
mileage. I was wondering if the stock distributor and other ignition
components will be damaged by the increased voltage? I read somewhere
that the stock coil was about 12,000.
Thanks for the great list, and all of the info.
