The demands for better emissions and fuel economy in the mid 1970s necessitated leaner fuel mixtures. These leaner mixtures required greater voltage and more spark to ignite. This challenge led GM ...
It wasn't all that long ago that GM engineers designed the original HEI system to replace the decades old points-type ignitions. In the mid-'70s, leaner mixtures demanded greater voltage and more ...
It seems like such a small thing—that tiny area approximately 0.040 of an inch wide inside each combustion chamber. That area we're talking about is the gap between the electrode and strap on each ...
