I've got a Crane HI-6 ignition which adds multi spark (so more spark there), and the Crane LX92 coil which gives a bigger spark as well.

Gained 4 RWKW from that alone.

You're biggest problem is your running coil packs, I think only MSD do a upgrade suitable for coil packs, but it's expensive.

date_mine, whats the retail on that stuff, and does it need any tricks to install, or is it fairly self explanatory?

Very easy to install. Run power, ground, splice into the exisiting coils wiring, wire up new coil. Done.

The hardest part was I couldn't find a suitable lead for the new coil to dizzy, so bought a long one, and cut it down.

I spent about $450. From Star Performance. They're on the Crane list of distis.
