ZL-1, MSD
My ZL-1 engine "loads up" when idling or driving in traffic (cruise night only). Would an MSD unit (I would use the GM version 10037378 if compatable with TI ignition) help this problem? Engine is all ZL-1 including cam, carb. Thanks.

Re: ZL-1, MSD
My first suggestion would be to ditch the AC plugs and try a set of NGK v-power plugs...if they don't clean up your idle, then you can definitely look elsewhere.
