I did it just to see what any effect would be (note I only have a
Pertronix Ignitor ignition module; my coil is bone stock and has a dent
in it). It does produce a hotter spark as the coil has to develop a
higher voltage to jump a larger gap (the coil ceases to produce voltage
when the spark fires; it's effectively a short circuit). If your
secondary system isn't in good nick leaks or cross-firing can occur.
I think electricity travels fast enough to compensate for a 0.003"
difference.
