    electronic dwell?

     



    What is electronic "dwell" mean? I see it on aftermarket Ignition Modules and coils for GM HEI and other stuff. I would guess it has to do with the time it takes the coil to build up a magnetic field?
    I am thinking it is BS and the stock GM 990 Ignition Module and Accel Super Coil should be fine with exception to getting a MSD 6 box
    Have any of u put in a stock like Ignition Module and seen more power? I can't see getting a $200 + MSD 6
