Autolite 764's you more than likely dont need to replace the coilpacks.

Just leave the hyped up coil packs alone, biggest waste of money you can spend is trying to veer from the stock coil packs.

Bang for the buck wires = MSD, real wires that make a difference and supply more power the MSD wirs and a MSD DIS4 box combined are the Nology's which also include a LIFETIME warranty.

Autolite 764's in copper gapped at .048 is killer for the plugs.

Give Max at 5 Star Ford a call (1-800-866-1520 ext. 236) and order the Ford 9MM racing wires and the lightning plugs (AWSFA-12C for the lightning plugs). One good thing about running the lightning plugs is that you can run a lower octane fuel without any problems because they are 2 steps colder than stock plugs. Which are gapped at .048 as the rest.

Always check the gap, even if they say they are already gapped.
