Holley Ignition Products

[Racerseks]

Anyone have any experience with Holley's ignition parts.....coil, module, etc.? Seem to be some pretty good deals on 'em.....just wondering what anyone's experience might be.....compatability, etc.

Thanks for the reply.....na, it was actually in reagrd to the anihilator stuff.....can't find 'em on Holley's website anywhere.

Hey, being in Bowling Green.....you ever get a factory tour?

Be careful with certain aftermarket coils. They can mess up your tach. I installed an MSD coil during my recent tune up and the tach would actually drop when I accelerated. Stick with OEM for the coil..

Thanks for the reply.....I may just do that.....but thought I'd get some opinions, etc.

We no longer sell the Annihilator line unfortunately, but I think you can get some great deals from dealers that still have some.

The Corvette plant tour is a good tour. I have some friends who work there.

and what a tour it was.

Thanks for the reply.....how are the coil and modules? I heard there are some compatability problems with other aftermarket brands.....but then again, probably happens with others too.

Have them on your own car? Any experience or opinion on them?

Thanks!

I don't have any Annihilator products on my car. It's not because they wouldn't work, I just haven't had the time or money to do much. Soon, I'll be done paying college tuition for my older son. We'll see what happens after that.

If you really want to get an opinion regarding the product and compatibility, call our tech guys, or log a question at www.Holley.com . They know a lot more than I do (I get reminded of that every day). They'll give you an honest opinion based on what you want to accomplish. Sometimes, they'll recommend other products if what we have isn't appropriate.

I do know some guys using the Commander modules with good success.

I can agree with John there when I was doing my TPI conversion I e-mailed the three manufacturers of TPI type setups at the time. Holley tech got back to me in 2-3 days with part numbers etc everything I needed to do the job.
I have a real early model Commander 950 ECU that has performed flawlessly. I would have prefered a sequential system but the response of the Holley tech was my deciding factor.
BTW I had the car up and running for 3 months before I heard from the other tech guys:eyerole:eyerole

thanks for the testimonial.

We've had decent comments on the Commander.

Thanks, I'll do that.....I'm doing more of a major tune-up with some minor preformance add-on stuff, so considering the coil and module from Holley.

Thanks again for the reply!

Yea, that's an important factor to consider. It's frustrating when it takes so long to hear from some companies. Gives you an indication of what to expect post-sale. I'll consider that as well.

Thanks for the input!
