Hey, you said "Bump it"...lol
Seems I recall you sizzling on the end of a plug wire attached to a 67 Mustng once....

Reminds me of a guy I saw pull into the pits one day in edmonton at a bracket race, 1967 cuda with this huge promod wing off the back. Real hippie lookin guy, he opens the hood and has an instant crowd. I wander over to see what the fuss is about and this guy is talking about the advantages of having 6 coils hooked up to the distributor on his 340 ci. One guy pipes up and asks 'how fat is the spark off those wires?' so the hippie lookin dude pops off a lead and cranks the engine and be damned if he wasnt thrown back 20 feet and had to change his drawers, shoulda ground the wire hahaha still see the smoke out of his ears.
