Default Bad battery or MSD
Mike,
Have you checked for spark from the coil? I have killed 2 MSD coils by not having adaquate chassis grounds. I am also using an Optima battery and MSD ignition. I also fried an MSD Ignition module, also with a bad ground. Try checking the ignition before you buy another battery. If you search for threads that I started (asking for ignition help I think), you will find some very helpfull tests for MSD ignitions.
