The highest Amp mini (we are already set up for it I see is 50 amp, same one Ive got)

The Powermaster has a 150 amp mini, same case, adjustable voltage.

I am wondering Art if you were having amp issues as well to the coils ever figure out why you were slower ?

Give the keyboard a rest and call John or Chuck at East Coast Auto Electric. ....They are some of the most knowlegable guys you can talk to about this, and they are racers who are doing it themselves .........570-457-0553.......................Tom

I believe it is the dwell to the coils. I run 4 LS1 Coils. But I draw a lot of amps from everything else. I have a Mezeire water pump, a Aeromotive A1000 fuel pump (overkill) and a high draw electric fan (don't usually race with this on )

Another option for you. I have this Jones Racing kit on my car. Never had any problems. Make sure you use 8 or10 ga wire and a HD switch to shut off the current flow when not in use. Open link on the right,,,,,,http://www.jonesracingproducts.com/kits.html#sbcAlt
